Hi, I don't know if this is possible, but I'd like to install a window program (in the specific JBuilder Personal) over a samba share, and then to mount a network share as a disk from windows clients, so they can use the program. Is it possible? Any idea on how to share windows programs from a linux server? Thanks, Luca -- Luca Ferrari, fluca1978@infinito.it
http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/secure.html#ch4appscfg Basically: Step 1: Find out if your application has a "network install" feature. I find it likely that JBuilder does at some level but JBuilder *Personal* may not. Step 2: Create a file share. Step 3: Map the share to a drive letter on the systems you want to run the apps. Step 4: Do a network install to the mapped drive letter. Sometimes you can improvise if there is no network install feature. Step 5: If there was a network install option available, you may now be required to do a "per user" install. Frequently this is automatic but> I don't know if this is possible, but I'd like to install a window program (in > the specific JBuilder Personal) over a samba share, and then to mount a > network share as a disk from windows clients, so they can use the program.
