CodeWeavers apparantly has Quickbooks running (unsupported) under CrossOver Office 1.2. (Quicken running supported, for what *that* is worth...) Codeweavers puts its code back into Wine; the only thing they don't is anything

Debian and Samba Teams: I'm having a really weird problem with Samba 3.0Beta2+RC4 on my Debian Sarge (testing) system with Quickbooks Pro 2002 multi-user version. The version of my question is: Does anybody know what the proper global, share, and permissions settings should be to support multi-user Quickbooks on a Samba share? The Long Version: The Quickbooks data-file resides on it's

It is widely known that Quickbooks has a horrible storage engine, "requires" Windows to host multiuser access, etc. However, I've successfully been storing QuickBooks files on Samba shares at a handful of locations with no real issues other than slight performance degradation. However, a somewhat recent thread here mentioned the proper use of oplock'ing in the Samba configuration

Hi there, Can somebody please explain to me why Samba 3 requires 'oplocks = no' on shares for programs like Quickbooks to operate properly with multiple users, where Samba 2 didn't? Without this option, Quickbooks will complain about file corruption when a second user tries to open a file. This option, however, makes the particular share that the option is present in _very_ slow

I moved a Quickbooks Pro file to our Samba server (v 2.0.7) during an effort to centralize some stuff in our organization. Before moving the file to the samba server it was shared from a users NT Workstation. I don't consider this a viable long term solution. Anyway ... here it goes with my problem report .... :-) So I moved the Quickbooks file to the Samba server, setup an Accounting share

I thought I had things figured out, but guess not. I have multi-user Quickbooks databases that functioned fine on a Novell server but are behaving badly on a Samba share. I have created a separate share for the Quickbook databases, users are running Win XP Pro, latest patches, and the Quickbooks application installed on the desktop. It is a multiuser version. Server is RedHat ES 3, Samba

I've installed Quickbooks 2006/07 with the following commands under Ubuntu 8.10 with Wine 1.1.4 1. Install IE 6 sudo apt-get install wine cabextract binfmt-support $ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks $ winetricks ie6 vcrun6 fakeie6 2. Install Quickbooks 06/07 by loading the CD and typing wine Setup.exe in the appropriate directory.

Hi all; the other day we tried to get ambitious and get the office onto a samba domain. Things were fine, but our quickbooks users could not use quickbooks because they were domain restricted users and needed to be domain standard users. Anyone have any help on how to get the users in question to be power users? Mike hillyer

Using Ubuntu 8.04, Wine 1.1.3 Application is Quickbooks 8.1. I have succesfully run this app in 7.04 with older wine version. I'm finding that the menu's with arrow up & down seem to crash Quickbooks and wine. Not using the arrows but when you go all the way to the top or bottom. A restart is then needed to get Quickbooks to open up again. Any ideas? As I say this worked great

On a server that has been running smoothly since it was setup, and with no changes to configurations or network or anything, users cannot save a shared QuickBooks file. they have been regularly using, updating and saving to this file for a few months. All users are able to create and update other files in the same share. I have not confirmed if they are able to create and update new QuickBooks

I did testing on generating this report from a 130 MB Quickbooks file. Locally, 15 seconds. Samba Server, 1:35. Shared off of my win98 Workstation, 2+ mins. I do not understand the reason it is SOO slow. I know it is a fairly large file. The only explanation I can come up with is the way QuickBooks is accessing the files. Maybe jumping all around the file, requiring many operations on the

I've installed quickbooks 06/07 under Ubuntu 810 using Wine 1.1.4. I've also installed IE6 using the ies4linux tool. I can start IE6, but when I start Quickbooks through wine I get this error: 'This version of QuickBooks requires Mircosoft Internet Explorer 6.0 (or later). Install Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 from your QuickBooks CD-ROM, or get information on obtaining Microsoft

Quickbooks Pro works Purrrrrfectly on Corel Wine. It looks good, works good and prints good. The only caveat is that when it is running, you cannot launch Wordperfect as well - it is an either or situation. Cheers, Herman http://www.AerospaceSoftware.com Aerospace Software Ltd.

Hi: I am new to WINE, so sorry for the dumb question. Has anyone tried to use QuickBooks on WINE with Ubuntu? Thanks, John

I have a Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) PC running Wine 1.0-rc4 and am attempting to install QuickBooks Premier 2007 for a customer who hates Vista and will switch to Linux if I can get this to work. However, the install program keeps failing. QuickBooks insists on having .NetFrame 1.1 installed but always fails when it tries to install it. So, I did a rm -rf ~/.wine to start fresh and then installed

Please help if anybody knows the answer! I''m just starting to learn Ruby on Rails. I''m working my way through the Agile Web Development with Rails book. I have been offered a project that I''d like to do with Rails for a not-for-profit organization. However, the person who I would be doing it for would like the application to integrate with their Quickbooks system
