There are a number of ways to accomplish this, from "roll your own" to
packaged solutions with a simple file drop interface and lots in between
(and we've done them all ;-)

There aren't many solutions that run natively on Linux, and the ones that do
tend toward the expensive side.  But you can always use a PC-based package
as the credit card "server", and transfer your requests and responses to and
from it via Samba.

Let me know if you'd like more info.

Subject: [U2] Credit Card Handlers

Oh wise ones... We have a competitor at one client that processes credit
cards for them with line-item detail of their purchases.

I'm not familiar enough with credit card processing to know if doing so
via U2 is possible. Currently we have a card swiper in a central location
and all cards are processed there. I'd like a solution that would allow
our sales team to just type the number in and have things automagically
happen, with a verification printed on the forms we currently generate in
our 'legacy' U2 application. We aren't using anything other than the
text-based green screen application, albeit via nice XP-based PCs (Okay,
I'd rather they ran on Linux as I do).

TIA
