The easy way is:

        install MySQL (redhat comes with it)
        install the MySQL ODBC driver on your windows machines (so that
                your Windows machines can access there data)
        export the data and table definitions in SQLO format from your
                MSSQL server
        import these SQL files into MySQL (may require some minor editing of
                the SQL)

See this site:

        http://www.mysql.com/

for more info.

Other database options include PostGres and Oracle.
