I have had personal experience with using Oracle, and MySQL databases under
Linux. I've got colleagues that use Postgres under it as well). None of
these databases are particularly hard to get set up. As long as you get your
class paths set up to include the JDBC drivers, it's pretty easy to use them
from servlets and JSP pages too.
The new JSWDK-1.0-EA release also works under Linux -- I've been using it
(talking with an Oracle database using the Oracle thin driver) with
Blackdown's pre-v2 Java2 JDK.
