I work as a pc/network technician in a school district with about 3000 students in Texas. Basically all of our pc's run the standard with 98/office 2000. I have however convinced my boss to let me put up a slackware server that we use for hosting a few of our web pages and may start doing some routing for our district. Anyway, I have wanted to try to get something like this going on here, but everyone is so stuck to using -only- office 2k that they would refuse to switch to an open source alternative. If anyone has any suggestions on what I could do to maybe get things going here, please let me know. I would love to get away from paying outrageous win/office license fees.
