Accessing .Net web application from UNIX

Hi, being a Windows developer and not having anything to do with
UNIX/Solaris, I have a few questions about accessing .Net Web
Applications from such environments.

If a client has a UNIX/Solaris environment, is it possible to put a
Windows 2000 box on the network which hosts a .Net web application and
access it from other UNIX machines on the network (via Netscape or
whatever)?
Is this as straight forward as plugging a network cable in to the back
of a windows box and directing any machines Browser on the network to
the web site on the win machine?

What issues would we face? Any handy web sites to help me through
this?!

Cheers,

Tony.

Sure, you just need to configure the TCP/IP settings so that the
machines can see each other (nothing out of the ordinary). You won't
be able to take advantage of Windows-specific IIS features, but if you
keep it simple (Netscape's not so hot when it comes to HTML), you
shouldn't have any problems.

Hello, I have two different scripts that do pretty much the same thing. The main perl script is on Windows. It runs and in the middle of it, it then calls out another perl script that then should run on a Unix box I have. Both scripts run ok, except for the part when Windows try's to call out the Unix script. I have it set up where the Unix is mapped through a drive letter and can drop stuff into the Unix box. It is going through another...

I currently use ADO (adoConn.Provider = "ADSDSOObject") to access user information in the domain Active Directory. I want to expand my application to be able to access user information in other LDAP compatable user lists (LINUX or UNIX for example). I did some searching on deja.com (google groups) and microsoft's newsgroups, but couldn't find anything. Any help -- even a good starting point -- would be much appreciated.

Hello, I am a newbie to Oracle databases.... We have a visualization front-end tool connected to an Oracle back-end database on a Tru64 UNIX server. We also have clients with MS access databases who would like to share their data using this visualization tool but do not want to import their data into the Oracle server back-end.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
