Hi. What is your question? Linux is being widely used in production
|
|
environments for all these activities, and has been for several years.
|
|
</BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
Except perhaps for Sql-ledger. I'm not sure what that is. Is it a
|
|
specific class of applications different from an ordinary SQL server?
|
|
Do you know of a product running on Linux which does Sql-ledger? Or
|
|
what kinds of accounting programs would be acceptable in its place?
|
|
</BLOCKQUOTE>

The Answer Gang can answer short, specific questions that would be of
|
|
interest to a significant portion of our readership. (All questions
|
|
and answers are considered for publication, although you can be
|
|
anonymous if you request.) However, if it's a large, general question
|
|
like "help me design my office network" or "help me write an application
|
|
which does this", we would steer you to the Linux documentation and to
|
|
paid consultants.
