[KSB] I at least would like to know if it works with Firefox/Linux.
My employer evidently has too much money in the bank, because they
have chosen Sharepoint rather than Plone.  Thanx in advance.


It will if you set up the authentication correctly.

IIRC, the sharepoint setup program allows you to choose what type(s) of authentication that you wish to support (if the setup program doesn't give this option, then you could always configure authentication options via the IIS MMC snapin, but besides the point...).  If you only support AD authentication, then FF will not work.  Firefox will only work if basic and/or digest authentication is enabled.  Even then, digest authentication seems to fail if the password is greater than 26 characters. 

HTH
