Ok, your situation would be a good scenario for the multi-user, but there
is one road block. Red Hat 7.1 uses
a 2.4.2-2 kernel. The Multi-user version that is available on our web site
is only compatible with 2.2.18 or below
kernels. It has the same limitations as our Win4Lin 2.0.x versions.
Win4Lin 3.0 which is coming soon, will provide support for 2.4.x kernels,
as well as 2.2.x kernels. We're
still shooting to have the Win4Lin 3.0 Desktop (single user) version
available first week in May. The server (multi-user)
version which is based on Win4Lin 3 will be released some time after that.
If you would like more information, you're welcome to respond directly back
to me.
