Hi Everyone, In our endeavour to implement a Windoze less office, I would like to add something. I am planning to implement FLOSS in my office network of 7 computers. No accounting packages, no frills network. Just Peer-to-Peer and connected to the Net thru one of the PCs' using the ICS in Win XP. Predominantly use Word, Excel and Mailing.
I just want to shift to FLOSS and know that all the above are possible using LINUX. I want to, in addition to the above, implement a messaging server thru which we can chat within our office. Is there any such application thru which we can chat, using "gaim" or something. Provided we are not connected to the Net always. I want to be able to chat with one-other. I know it is possible in M$ world using I believe Exchange Server or something like that and Netmeeting on the client side. Is this possible in our TUX world and if yes are there any free software available.
rgds,
