I have written a small application for my company. The application just utilizes a preexisting access database. It allows members from my team to update and add to the database, nothing more. The problem is...all of our web stuff is hosted on a linux
server here (intranet). Any idea/steps/tips I could use to get it to run on that server? I guess my real question is....is it possible to add a virtual machine with windows server on that box? Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks

Hi,
That's better asked on on a Linux dedicated forums I guess.
ASP.NET however could be run on Linux via the Mono project.
Another option would be to make use of Windows Azure. Either Web sites or VM's.
Grz, Kris.
Interested in Azure, ASP.NET (MVC), jQuery, WCF, EF, MS SQL, ...

On Linux I think you can get only read access to a .mdb file.
