VORTEX on Linux

Is it possible to have the VORTEXserver running on Linux, have it access an MS SQL Server and connect to the Linux using JDBC?
Yes.

What databases run on Linux?
SoftwareAG's ADABAS, DB2, and Oracle all run on Linux. You can get details on how to get a free copy of ADABAS D Personal Edition for Linux at SoftwareAG's site.

I want to use my Linux machine as a c and/or jdbc client to access an Oracle database on my Solaris 2.5 or HP/UX 9.0/10.20. I guess I need software on my server, because SQL*Net is not supported on Linux. If so, is this piece delivered as source code ? Is the Oracle version important?
You need VORTEXc for Linux, VORTEXserver for Solaris, and VORTEXjdbc. We support all versions of Oracle 6, 7, and 8; the only problem you may encounter is linking to the Oracle 7.2 OCI. If you do have problems, you must build cdemo1.c in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo and use the libraries referenced there.
