Hope it's not like here. Somebody told our (now ex-) management that Wine would allow Linux to run Windows software. The (Now ex-) management thought: "Wonderful! We'll get an IFL, run Linux (IT'S FREE!!!) and consolidate xxx Windows servers onto the z800!" They wanted to run a number of MS Exchange and MS SQL servers on a single IFL on the z800. What a pain to try to explain to them that they were sold a bill of goods. And, their reaction was typical: "This is all YOUR fault!" -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
