Hi,

Is it easy to host asp.net aplication written in .net 2.0 or 3.5 on
linux server ?
Has anybody tried ? Is it hard ?
Will I spend 2 weeks trying to run hello word aplication ? ;)

Thanks
 
how long it takes depends on how well you know unix/linux and asp.net.
if you have to learn a mono ide, apache and mono, then it will take
longer than just learning mono setup. if you are a visual studio drag
and drop programmer switching to mono will also require you to learn a
lot more asp.net. also most mono work is for c# though novell has a vb
compiler, but if you are are vb.net programmer its a bumper road.

mono has become very popular as the mono support in kde and gnome will
attest. there are sqlserver, oracle and mysql clients for mono.

linq support is farther out see:

The farthest you will get is 2.0, as the open source Mono only goes that
far, at least thus far. In other words, there is no 3.5 in Mono yet.

Tried? Yes.
Hard? No

The deployment is a bit different. ASp.NET Pro mag did an article on the
LAMA stack recently (Linux, Apache, MySQL and ASP.NET). You can find enough
google sources on Mono to be dangerous, as well. ;-)
