    Does anyone know of a good network diagram drawing tool very similar to Visio that will run on linux?
    If it is open source and also runs on windows too, that'd be great!

    Please click here to see a network diagram. :)

    I'll look into the draw program from OpenOffice.

    Ah, yes. Your network setup for the mental ward - I remember from the other thread!

    Draw can do that. The difference will be in the images you can choose from. I like all of the OpenOffice.org suite, but it has a weak-ish spot or two. Base is not as robust as Access and Draw can't open Visio files due to the file format. But other than that, it's hard to beat when it comes to cost.

    Good luck!
