In my corner of the office I have installed Mandrake 9.1 (started at 8.0) with Hylafax and it does a little web hosting (internally) and it also does remote checks on customers servers texting problems to support mobiles. The company has opted for RedHat in the only other area for testing our software on (I have no input there). They are very windows centric here so it is difficult to get them to change over.

Just curious about something. How many of the list members are using Linux in the workplace and how? I think it would be encouraging to see who's doing what with it, and which distro's, whether they're seeing an increase in business because of Linux and what interesting things they're doing with Linux. It might prove to be an interesting source of information for newbie's to know what can be done with Linux, especially when it's applied in a production environment. We see all kinds of articles regarding Linux, but it's very hard to contact those people to see how something was done, and what Tips 'n' Tricks were used to accomplish a particular task. MandrakeSoft has a special site (http://www.mandrakebizcases.com ), that allows anyone to post their particular application of Linux, but for the most part you can't get the hands-on info from those companies or individuals. Is this something we could/should add to the Twiki site? Comments?
