I need your help. I've searched the Internet and did a lot of experimenting but I cannot get Office 2000 to work with Linux 7.3 and the latest-version of Samba. I had no problem with Office97 and other applications. I used the setup /a on a win2000 client to decompress the files so I could run setup and install the applications on the Samba share. The files will install onto the Samba

Hello--As a noob to both Linux (Ubuntu) and Wine, I'd like to request advice: After installing Ubuntu 10.04 fr/LiveCD, I installed Wine 1.1.42, included w/10.04. Wine now appears on the Ubuntu Applications menu, so it appears I'm ready to start. I need to use Office 2000, for which I have an original CD w/Product key.

Oplocks seem to be created on downloadable driver files when printer is accessed DENY WRITE

hi guys has anyone any experiences about wine's fake-windows option? I tried to install office2000 leading to the windows-installer problem already dscribed in this newsgroup. Downloading windows-installer from Microsoft also didnt lead to any improvements (installation failed) Any suggestions? Thanks Mooses

Dear All I am using Wine 0.9.15 on Fedora Core 5 in connection with WineTools. However, when I create a new database on MS Access (from MS Office2000), I get the following error: "The Dynamic Link Library msjet40.dll could not be located". So, I cannot use MS Access under Wine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Paul

I've sent a couple of messages about this to both of these lists, but I've never gotten it working. :-( I've got details, so I'll post to both lists, and see if anybody can, or has, made this work. I've got a share for Office 2000, with 2 sub directories under it, one for disk one, one for disk 2. When I try to run setup from a UNC (\\blofeld\office2000\disk1\setup), I get

Hello all - I've worked through several google (as well as a searchable samba mailing list) searches, but haven't found a direct answer to my problem. Some things seem similar, but not enough for me to quickly resolve my problem. Overview: Accessing any Office2000 file from a samba-directory results in explorer (and whatever Office program was active) to hang. This only seems to be a

Jeremy, Bit of bad news - we had a another runaway SMBD. This time profiles were NOT involved - I was simply copying up an installation of Office2000 and then deleting it. It almost reached the end of the deletion when the processor utilisation went up to 90%. The client connection then dropped with a 'connection is no longer available' and there is now 99% processor utilisation on the

There does not seem to be a RPM for Red Hat 7 of version 1.2.1. What should I do? I have a new computer with RH7. I''m willing to try to make one from the SRPM, but I''ve never done that before, and I don''t want to go to the trouble if someone else is already planning to do it soon. Likewise, I could install it from the tgz file. (I just did that on a Solaris server,

Hi all, In my view specs (for Rails), how can I get at instance variables that are set within my view? For example, if my view looks like this: <% @header = "My Header" -%> <div>some content</div> How can I get to @header from within my view spec? I''ve tried @header and assigns[:header] to no avail.

Hi, I used some time ago the winetools package to configure wine older than 0.9.10 with IE6 and Office 2000. Updates of wine up to 0.9.10 where also succesful, so that I was able to continue the usage of MS Office2000. But since the Desktop changes in wine 0.9.11, 0.9.12 the old installation does no more work. ## My experiements to install IE6 and Office 2000 without winetools are not yet

Hi I have recently installed samba on a RH7.0 box. This box has win98 + linux rh7 installed and both os's are running well. The F drive on windows is FAT32 and is mounted r/w on linux RH7. Works fine. I also have a Win98se machine that needs to have full read/write access to some partitions on the RH7 box. Samba was found ideal for such setup. The problem I have is that I can't write to

Anybody know a way to enlarge a filesystem ext3 without having to unmounted it, when they are still space left in the volume group (when using LVM) ? I will be running large production linux system running Oracle. I can't stop the database everytime I have to enlarge a filesystem. We can do it with all others filesystems (JFS, REISERSFS and XFS) when they are created in a volume group. Why
