We have tried them all and have come to the conclusion that, ( and note I have a great deal of disdain for M$ products!!! ), the best solution for multiple users where specific Windows applications are mandatory is to have a W2K server on the K12ltsp network and use rdesktop to open M$ sessions. Compare cost, compatibility & performance & the W2K server wins out. Now note that this uses costing for educational institutions as a benchmark for comparison. regards norbert <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:simpsond@leopards.k12.ar.us">simpsond@leopards.k12.ar.us</a> wrote: <blockquote cite="midPine.LNX.4.58.0409141756570.27095@leopards.k12.ar.us" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">What is is about them that wine won't handle?
