There are two implementations of the .NET platform. Mono and Portable .NET, which can target Linux and Solaris:

C#, MSIL, the CLI and a large part of the .NET framework libraries were designed to be platform independent and have been standardized by both ECMA and ISO.
This enables organizations other than Microsoft to port .NET to other platforms which is what Novell and DotGNU have done, mainly for Unix based operating systems.
