Are you trying to say, that you have a Windows box and that you want it to display on a Linux box? You certainly can run Windows applications under WINE.

This is the fellow who was trying to unsubscribe and my guess is that he is now "mad at the list" and is trying to "get back at it". :-)

You should be able to use tightvnc to do this. Install on both the winyuk box and the linux machine. Configure the winyuk machine as a server. Another way of doing it is to use the inbuilt vnc server, its list on a winXP thing as allow another user to help, or something like that. If you use that facility you will neeed to run a virtual machine, VMWare or Parallels. Win4lin will only let you run win98 or the later version win2000, If you use the inbuilt vnc on winXP you need to talk to it from another winXP machine either real or virtual. IMO the simplest solution is to use tighnvc, install on both machines. HTH Richard

If I'm reading the question correctly, you're not looking for WINE...you're looking for VNC or Remote Desktop -- something that will allow you to connect to the Windows machine and start a program. If that is the case, look into enabling Remote Desktop on the Windows box (it's enabled by default on Windows Server, but disabled by default on WinXP); or installing a VNC server (TightVNC -- http://www.tightvnc.org/ -- is one that I've used pretty regularly over the past few years)

No. Wine is used to run Windows apps on the Linux box, not remote systems. You'd need to use VNC or other remote control app.

Though in theory you could mount C:\ over samba and run WINE using the mounted Windows installation. -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W. Watts

That would not be running a Windows app on it's own box. It's nothing more than storing the executable on another computer and running it on the Linux box. That sort of thing has been common since the beginning of file and print sharing.

I keep getting confused/forgetting between WINE and VNC. -- ======================================================================== Currently using SuSE 9.2 Professional with KDE and Mozilla 1.7.2 Linux user # 229959 at http://counter.li.org ========================================================================
