I appreciate your comments / suggestion

I don't think that you need to choose between managing Linux and Windows servers. For example, you can use Active Directory to manage the usernames and passwords in Linux. I have used system with AD managing connections but I did not install or set that up. So I am not sure how to install it.

The thing you might want to focus on is maintaining a single sign on across all servers and workstations and making sure that everyone has access to the applications that they need and that they work.

Having said that, for me anytime I can kill something that only runs on Windows and convert to something that runs on Linux I would do just that. But you have to find the business need to migrate from one application to another.
