What other solutions are around that are as easy (?) to implement as MSES on
an NT server?  are there any solutions that can run on a Linux server, with
Linux and Windoze clients?  This WOULD be nice!  Even something that runs on
a Linux server, and allows Lookout to be used as a client and be able to use
organization-wide contact lists, shared folders and scheduling.  Now, this
would be REALLY GREAT!!!!

Regards,
Hilton
