Free(more or less) databases should be available, like MSQL & Postgres. About I don't know any commercial. > Linex has only a shareware db. That's not correct - I've seen few days before informations from Solid Information Technology Ltd. about a version of their SQL Database for Linux. There is also a german product, called YardSQL, for Linux. Both are not share- or freeware and look as they could the job on WWW sites (depending on load & applications). If you would like the comfortable way to pump your data from MS-ACCESS to the WWW site, you would need a ODBC driver. Could be a mere, over 3000 miles and telephone lines.
