Windows and Linux should be able to coexist. I have had great success
setting up a VMware ESXi server with Windows VMs for AD and Exchange and
Linux VMs for Asterisk and Web / FTP. Asterisk with Exchange UM for
voicemail is a winning combination and works seamlessly. It is essentially
a private cloud of the customer. Why not use the OS that works for the task
at hand?
