wine users - Jan 2010 - Re: [FAQ] [RFC] How can multiple users share an installed Wine a

bug #11112 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11112 is about running
multiple wineservers at the same time.

In a common situation of multiple users sharing the same machine, obviously not
at the same time, the solution on that howto
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=917422 does not seem problematic.

Of course, if the users' home are shared over the network, that solution
doesn't work even if using the same user account.

Personally I prefer to have different wineprefixes per application and per user
but keep the program files in a shared location (just using a drive letter to
point to it).

That is interesting.

The first user install his application using wine and selects the shared
location. How does the second user get the program installed, that means
get this application registered as installed? How do you handle the file
permissions?
