As a past employee there, I can say that we used Linux in a variety of
places including:
- DNS
- development boxes
- customer monitoring (OpenNMS)
- monitoring of various network links (MRTG)
- internal customer database (MySQL and PostgreSQL)
- NAS servers (NFS, Samba)
In short, if the "geeks" used it for our stuff, we would use Linux where
possible. If the server was for the office-staff side of the house, it
was Windows servers and workstations.
