robuntu there are a lot of ways that bring trouble. Lot of programs write files where you will not be excepting. Other admins have faced the same problems. There is a reason why I said migration. Best way is to systematically do way with the requirement of the windows applications over time. Really it needs wine design altered so it works. Yes the problem of Linux becoming more and more mainstream and wine not being ready for it. Wine when it first started out the issue of multi users was not even considered. The problem these design errors always come back at some point. Issue is having the resources to deal with it. Hacks and tricks only will get you so far. oiaohm
