Hey guys,
My boss just asked me now to find a solution for a sharepoint in Linux.
Does anyone know any free software similar that runs on linux?
Cheers,
Fred Kaiser

A quick google search turned up O3Spaces Community Edition. I'm afraid I can't give you more information than that because I've never used it personally.

Hey, thanks for your help.

I was reading about it and it still not being the best idea once I will have more than 10 clients.

Oh well, I will keep trying to find another solution.

Anyways, if there's another idea, it will be great.

Cheers,
Fred Kaiser

I see. Also have a look at Alfresco. They have an open source product under GPL.

Yes, I would also have said Alfresco. They seem to compete directly with SharePoint. You can also get commercial support for it, if that should be important.

Thanks for the help, guys!

I've installed the O3Spaces and we are making some tests and I think 10 clients is enough her. They can use in diferent time.

I am thinking in create 9 users and 1 admin like: user1, user2, user3.... user 9 with a default password and devide the team in 9 groups os 2 ou 3 each grup.

I will have a look at Alfresco to see if it is useful for me.

Thanks again!

Cheers,
Fred

I'm having great fun with Drupal 6 as a free Content Management System on a Linux server. If you join openhost for webhosting, it's all pre-ready to install for you for free on their Debian 4 servers. (www.openhost.co.nz)
