Hello Linux folks! I have to use some M$ Office applications for my job. I know that I can run them under Linux using emulators like vine or vmware. But for this task I must create FAT32 partition and install Winblows with all needed M$ applications on my Linux server HD. I don't want to do that. Is there any possibility tor run Winblows applications installed on pure Winblows box under Linux over network.
VNC will do this. I know it allows you to run Linux apps on a Windows box, but I think it works the other way as well. At least I seem to recall hearing about it doing that at some point. The vnc entry in the RPM db here says it will as well.. ---------%----------- Name : vnc Distribution: SuSE Linux 6.1 (i386) Version : 3.3.2 Vendor: SuSE GmbH, Nuernberg, GeRelease : 35 Build Date: Wed Apr 14 22:12:43 1999Install date: Thu Jun 3 06:36:06 1999 Build Host: Einstein.suse.de Group : unsorted Source RPM: vnc-3.3.2-35.src.rpm Size : 2905275 License: GPL Packager : feedback@suse.de Summary : A virtual X-Server Description : With vnc you can start a virtual X-Server and get access to it from different machines with the vnc-viewer. You can change the machine without terminating your session. Viewer and server are also available for Windows - they allow access to vnc under windows. You can find it under /dosutils/vnc on the first CD. ---------%----------- There might only be a NT server though, now that I think about it. Anyway, check out that first CD. (I'm using SuSE 6.1 BTW.) You might want to check out the VNC homepage too.
