Beste Henry,

NetPublishEnterprise werkt momenteel alleen onder Windows of OS X. We hebben tests gedaan met Windows draaiend onder VMWare op een linux bak. Dat werkt zonder problemen.

In theorie is Linux support voor NPE mogelijk. Het enige probleem is de manier waarop de fileserver share gemount wordt, deze is anders dan onder Windows of OS X. De huidige versie van NPE kan daardoor de originele beelden en de previews niet vinden.
Omdat voor NPE ook een Portfolio server nodig is (Portfolio ondersteund alleen Windows en OS X) zal er toch altijd een Windows server nodig blijven voor het Portfolio deel.

Kind Regards,
Nico Krijnen
