While I've read on this mailing list that there are some Linux ODBC drivers, I have no experience with them. What I do is run a Zope installation on one of the Windows machines, which can access the MSAccess DB with the Windows ODBC. Then the Linux Zope gets the data from the Windows Zope using some form of RPC, such as Client.py (http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/ZClientMethod) or XML-RPC (which I have not tried).
We need something similar, so we're going with a ZEO setup with the storage server and the web-serving client on a Linux box and another ZEO client running on a Windoze box doing what it needs to...
Sorry if it's a "how long is a piece of string" question but, in general, is there likely to be any performance benefits over using one of these approaches over another?
