I am an ASP.Net developer and would like to test my applications on mono. I
am fairly new to linux but would love to host my asp.net applications on
linux and not MS IIS. As far as contributing to the project I would only be
able to supply the issues I come accross while trying to get my applications
to run.

My current development platform is WindowsXP, MS SQL Server,
VisualStudio.Net Enterprise Architect and developmend is done mostly with
VB.Net and code behind. I Dual Boot to RedHat8.0.

What I would like to see in mono:
1) Install whatever on RedHat
2) Setup whatever web server and copy my compiled code behind dll (bin
directory) and my aspx files to the web server.
3) Edit the web.config (is ADO.Net up enough to just put my MS SQL
connection string here, The SQL Server is on the same IP sub net as the
redhat box)
4) Start browsing my application.

Is mono at a place where this can be done?
Is there any documentation clear enough for a windows admin to set this up
and test?

Thanks

PS: I am very excited about the prospect of running my applications on
Linux, keep up the good work!
