Dear all,
I'm running CentOS 5.1. Is there any way to run MSDE or MSSQL on Linux?
Please help.
Thanks,

You can talk to them from a linux box, but you can't really RUN them from a linux box without virtualizing a windows OS.

We run Widows 2003 + MSSQL 2006 on top of Linux with XEN. If hardware limitations are the reason for your request, this is one way todo it. I know it will work on VMWare & VirtualBox as well. If you have the spare hardware, then rather run Windows server on it's own hardware, the performance will be better.
Appreciate your great help
Thanks,
