I would run them on the *nix box, since all my experiences with running 
filePro on windows or SCO, has been faster and more stable performance 
on unix.  Connecting to *nix from windows is handled by Reface, since it 
has an emulator built in, so no need for FacetWin (great product) or 
other term emulators.  To the users, they are running a windows program 
since that is what it looks like.
