RE: Remote Access

Some guy awhile back was trying to get VFP apps to run on Linux via Wine. g Yeah, who was that Masked Man? Actually, I think there was a pair of those damned hoodlums involved, from within ProFox no less! Gil -Original Message- From: profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com

He succeeded and got threatened by M$. Then the VFP EULA changed with a service pack that came out. There is another person in our midst who worked with me in running one of my apps under Red Hat Linux a few years ago. It is that project I want to blow the dust off of and do the same under

RE: Remote Access

FWIW, VNC on Linux doesn't tie up the real display/keyboard/mouse at the home base. Each user gets their own virtual display/keyboard/mouse. It works really well. Unless you hit the VNC Host using session = 0, in which case I do see the host system's current screen - which is great for

RE: SCSI drives and VFP data tables

Aaahseems I had it backwards. Thanks. Well, SATA (SATA II) has pretty much eclipsed both IDE and SCSI in desktop and smaller/lower demand server class machines. IDE is heading toward the direction of becoming dead in the HDD arena. SCSI is hanging in there, but SAS is starting to edge

RE: SCSI drives and VFP data tables

I had always found SCSI HDDs would out-perform IDE in an environment where we had multiple concurrent users hitting a shared HDD. With a single user IDE could kick SCSI's ass all day long (not a slow 5,400 rpm IDE though). SCSI was designed to handle multiple user I/O efficiently. It was also

I had to do that once, long ago. I took a brute force approach as it was a one-off situation. I shelled to Command Prompt and changed to the directory in question. I then ran dir *.dbf file_list.txt I then took the resultant file_list.txt and imported it into a table for analysis. I never
