One Linux Server - two filePro applications - Win & Linux filePro - Have a glass of WINE!

You wouldn't gain anything running at all running a windows version of filePro on a *nix operating system. 

Where you gain keeping the data on a single server..
	Best: Running filePro on a *nix server and having [windows/mac/ios/*nix] ssh clients.
	Second Best if you must run windows server: Setup Windows filePro on a Remote Desktop Server and access via RDP client.

	Everything else you run into scaling issues with large datasets in filePro.

Wine isn't the magic you need to cure the problem.

And yes in the late 2000's I was playing around to see what I could do with WINE and various applications. But WINE will not fix an engineering design. filePro is a Rapid Application Development environment that is tightly coupled to a database layer. Then again, you should know all this.

Is anyone out there running Windows filePro in a Linux Server on the WINE layer?

Is it possible (before I even try it), to run Windows filePro and Linux filePro in a single Linux Server using WINE and have one server host two filePro applications?

It seems possible for what I have read thus far but I figure I ask since none of the articles I've read were written by filePro users.

Could this cause a problem with Licensing if the installation is at all possible?
