Is there any .net extensions that will allow Microsoft Programs to run on a Linux Server?

You can run some ASP files if ChiliASP is installed.

Even then, Chilisoft only runs on certain flavors of Linux (at least according to Sun (http://www.sun.com/software/chilisoft/index.xml)), and even though CentOS is based on RHEL, there are no assurances it will run on it properly.

Also, Chilisoft and CPanel do not play nice together. AND then, even if you do get it working, it's just not the original...

One thing I did find was an ASP to PHP converter for FREE. However, No guarentees and it is not 100% accurate.

Since this was about 300 MB on a CD, I did not want to take a chance to convert it on the FLY, and I do not OWN the Program, nor did I have permission to modify it.

My guess is that the simple query function is about 20 kb. of that 300 mb. ;)

I suspect, using Windows, it would be a lot higher than that.

At least 200kB. The greatest Server resourses used will be the Image files. That is what worries me about the amount of BW I have. However, I have encouraged them to use thumbnails.
