[Gllug] Assistance with arguments to use Linux!

[Benjamin Donnachie]

I am currently building some new web-infrastructure and would like to
use Linux boxes as reverse proxies to protect the windows-based
application servers.  I'm looking at using RH with Squid or Apache and
potentially off-loading the https encryption to these boxes too.

So far I have tried arguing greater security and lower costs but,
unfortunately, management cringe every they hear Linux and go running
for the safety of Microsoft.

I'm currently pulling together some figures for a more robust
argument.  Has anyone on the list been in a similar position and have
any advice?

Take care,

Ben
