| I doubt it. Even if you could do it, you'd probably have some sort of emulation software, and performance would not be very good.For Linux, I'd suggest mySQL, but it doesn't have everything that SQL server has.Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must. Find the answer you will. Cursors, path to the Dark Side they are. Avoid them, you must. Use Order By NewID() to get a random record you will.</Yoda> |

No, I tried it before, but maybe I was using a lower version and they've come up with a version that allows this or simple messed up with installation  --------------------keeping it simple... |

| SQL Server is pretty much Windows platform dependent. If Linux/Unix is a requirement, mySQL as Michael suggested is an option, or for more enterprise options, you could go with (gasp!) Oracle (at least it works on Unix, I'm guessing it will work on Linux, too).---------------------------EmeraldCityDomains.com |
