Do I need to recompile though?

Nope, you don't even need to recompile. Mono implements the CLR and .NET namespaces on top of Linux, so your .NET DLL's and EXE's run without recompilation. Of course, there are some portions of .NET that Mono hasn't fully implemented yet and P/Invoke doesn't work, but things like ASP.NET are reasonably solid at this point.

Web servers (thus using ASP.NET) are where the sweet spot for Linux is right now, IMO.
