I obtained a copy of Applixware for Redhat and I was wondering if it was
possible to install this under Debian. I know that there is a program to
read rpm files (called alien or something?) but I'm sure really how to
go about the install process. If anyone has installed Applixware for
RedHat
better than I do so average for most I would suspect is
1 to 2 hours or less.
When done you just install the applix.deb file. Works nice too.

Yes, I own a copy of applix. I also happen to maintain alien. Alien can
easily convert the rpm's that come on the applix CD into debian packages. I
