If this is to turn over the responsibility of coding to someone else then I see your 
delima.. However, if someone that hosted ASP driven databases and simply wants you to 
take it over and make it work on your server then I would convert it.. You could 
simply setup their databases within sambar and go through and convert all the ASP 
pages to sambar scripting, or you could go all out and install php / mysql and convert 
it as such.. Probably the quickest turnaround would be just go through each asp file 
and convert it to sambar scripting (.stm).

My 2 cents.
