We are using that mix here for one application. We have an office full
of Windows users who will be using a front-end developed in MSAccess
with a PostgreSQL database running on a Linux server.

It's using ODBC to connect to the PostgreSQL database. We then have all
sorts of PHP, Perl and SQL processes updating and querying that database
in the background on the Linux system.

Feel free to e-mail me off-list for more info.

Cheers,
Andrew.
