Hi, Could you tell me if I'm wrong ? I've understood that Wine can run a dos EXE program under a linux/unix environment : I launch Wine with proper arguments and with the program name, and the magic happens... Thus, if my program does some file input/ouput, will it also work ? Will I be able to access the outputted file via my old bash ? In fact, I would like to call an EXE DOS program from a Java WebApp running under Tomcat on a linux box ... Thanks a lot :)

But maybe 'wineconsole' (comes with wine) will work better for you. And maybe you need something like dosemu.> In fact, I would like to call an EXE DOS program from a Java WebApp > running under Tomcat on a linux box ...... during the second new moon of the year, while you perform an ancient, secret, native american dance, chant long forgotten, magic words and sacrifice a white lamb. ;-) Daniel
