I wonder if VS.NET can be configured to "deploy to apache/mono" ?

Well...I would stay away from Windows.Forms in mono and concentrate on
the gtksharp...it works in both environments and is actually far ahead
of Forms...in fact, M$ is trying to emulate it in Longhorn...especially
the Glade XML forms building.

I've asked the same question, because I write many applications as
windows services and they are very useful in the SOA architecture.

I think Linux people would say that these are just daemons and any
program can be taken and scripted into a service...so, it's just a far
more loosely coupled process than building a windows service.
