has anyone ever installed or used the ACCPAC advantage accounting application on suse server? I have a client site that's interested in buying another module (inventory). I went to the accpac website www.accpac.com It says it'll work on windows or linux, it uses pervasive sql database or microsoft sql server. (Their accpac server is in aweful shape, I'll have to migrate it to a better server eventually.)
I worked on the Linux whitepaper with them. The "runs on Linux" claim is a bit of an exageration--the clients only run in windows but the file server can be samba. There was some talk a while ago about a DB2 port (which would the full backend to run on *nix) but I haven't heard anything else about it. -- -ckm
