Well, Its not really ASP. Meaning, it is ASP but not what a normal
webhosting customer would consider ASP. You can not
run vbscript/jscript on it. You cannot use your ACCESS dbs
with it. In other words, its just another scripting language
which your end users are unlikely to know.

If you want to run a true asp script (vbscript, etc.) .. in linux environment, especially RedHat. Try using chilisoft!Asp .. I don't know how it'll cost, I think it'll be pretty steep.

There is another software but I can't think of its name .. maybe other can help ??

None of these fully support all features, addon components (which in my opinion is very needed with asp).
Also, stuff like access db's wont work unless you have a windows
host to store the access db's on.

We use Sun One ASP (formerly known as ChilliSoft ASP) for some of our customers. Usually we just use Sun Cobalt RAQs, but we also run it successfully on Debian Linux Systems w/o any problems.
