Errrr... Thanks for your reply, but that is precisely what I don't want to do. My version of Notes does all that I want ATM and I can see no benefit in spending (quite a lot) of money to buy a new version of Notes that works natively under Linux and offers me features I don't need. I will investigate and see if my version supports other protocols than netbeui, otherwise I'll try out something like kvm. The purpose of the exercise is to shut down a server for good and spend nothing. I can see that wine may be useful for other apps even if this exercise isn't going to work, and I have learnt a lot so I don't feel the effort is wasted. Have I missed something? Best Regards, Paul.
