[ilugd] [Commercial] Migrate from current OS to Linux
Hi, I offer my services to corporates who are interested in migrating from current operating system to Linux due to reasons like: 1. Virus 2. Spywares/Adwares 3. Need to purchase OS 4. Formatting Machines once every 3-6 months due to various reasons 5. Blue Screen 6. OS becoming slow Just migrated a well known corporate from a proprietary OS to Linux (approx 175 machines). You can write to me for further info and clarification in this regard. Thanks and Regards, Amit Sharma Check out the all-new Messenger 9.0!

[ilugd] [Very-old-topic] Distro having best compatibility with MS related products
All, After being a freedom fighter for more then 3 years, today I am finding myself, again standing in front of the same age-old question which I had to confront during my days of initiation; *Distro*. But today it's not about me getting bored...it's about a small but important step whose ripples are far reaching. Finally I managed to convince one of my managers to try Linux. She will probably start with a dual-boot setup. Now comes the time for the old questions. Which Distro to recommend. But this time the biggest criteria is compatibility. This is too huge a place to completely switch to Linux in a month or year. It will take time. So, I have to start with ONE. The rest of the progress completely depends on this ONE. So, the biggest challenge here is not to fight but to co-exist with Windows. So, below are some of the things that are done in the office in a regular office. ~Connect to Windows Terminal Server for remote operations ~Mail Exchanging (Mail server is MS Exchange) and all other clients are Outlook ~Intranet website has issues with Firefox(Well, honestly doesn't work on anything other then IE) ~Extensive work in Office Suite, full compatibility with MS Office is a high priority. And some more which I may not be able to recall right now. So, could you please recommend the best distro which is best for peaceful co-existence in a M$ dominated environment. Regards SR -- I am dreamer... ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
Re: [ilugd] [Very-old-topic] Distro having best compatibility with MS related products
~Connect to Windows Terminal Server for remote operations tsclient comes in almost all distros. Can be used easily. ~Mail Exchanging (Mail server is MS Exchange) and all other clients are Outlook Dont know about this. ~Intranet website has issues with Firefox(Well, honestly doesn't work on anything other then IE) No distro gives option for this but you can try installing IEs4Linux. It works but has issues while closing, leaves zombie processes for me. ~Extensive work in Office Suite, full compatibility with MS Office is a high priority. No option for full compatibility in any distro or otherwise.

So, could you please recommend the best distro which is best for peaceful co-existence in a M$ dominated environment. I would recommend openSUSE (or Suse Linux Enterprise Desktop if you are looking for commercial support). One of the aims of the Novell-M$ deal was to build inter-operable software. I would not be keen to discuss the rest of the aims. BTW, I work for Novell's Suse division. -- Goldwyn ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
