Linux Project Management Software

Ideas for version control on an office network?

I work at a small consulting firm. We have about 40 employees using Windows XP and Windows 7 on a LAN. We use Linux fileservers to store all project files (MS-Office, ArcGIS, AutoCAD, images, etc.). Lately, version control has become a problem — people accessing the wrong versions of work files can mean wasted effort, not to mention hard feelings. I’m looking for suggestions to for version control or some kind of file management without adding thick layers of software and/or expense. Any ideas are welcome.

I have always used Visual SourceSafe, but it is a Windows-based product. You can probably create a Windows VM and run it from there. It is not heavily processor-intensive, but it could grow quickly depending on your retention specifications.
