Dear all,

I'm running CentOS 5.1. Is there any way to run MSDE or MSSQL on Linux?

Please help.

Thanks,


Chaminda Mendis

Without any kind of virtualization-technology: no
With some kind of virtualization-technology: yes


Search wikipedia for "virtualization".

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.
