[GRLUG] Linux server sync with MS Outlook

Ben, this definitly sounds like the solution I am looking for, can you 
clarify though, when you say server is there a specific Ubuntu install that 
is a server or do you mean a desktop installation running as a server? I'm 
still a little unclear on some of the terminology, right now I have SuSE 
10.2 but would gladly change if the other worked better. Can you advise? I 
have plenty of hardware for this app.
