Switching to Linux
I am the network administrator, help desk, and backup operator for a small company with fewer than 100 computers. I think my company would benefit from using Linux instead of M$, however, my road blocks are the end users (some of whom don't even know how to use Windows), my boss, and our mission-critical application. As a personal project, I have implemented CentOS at work running Nagios, and it has been working well so far. Currently we are running M$ servers, and this will likely not change in the near future because we have a server application that is only available for Windows and would not be supported by the software vendors if it were installed on anything else. This application also has a Windows-only client that would be another road block. Is there a product (Windows- or Linux-based) that can stream (virtualize) a windows application to a Linux box?
