We have two questions when migrating our existing Drupal site from Windows to Linux ;
1/ As we will using the same content and modules, will it be required to run the update.php ?
2/ Are there specific things we need to look at ?

Update.php is for changes to
Update.php is for changes to the database that are required by some drupal or module update. If you are setting up the same versions of everything, there really shouldn't be anything that changes. You will (and much of this depends on your setup and modules) need to check your files setup. If you are using any modules that upload files, or store the paths to files in the database, you will need to check how they are setup. Once you switch servers, these paths will likely change.
