Hi folks,

I have been working lately to provide our company with a "Terminal 
Service"-like solution using FreeBSD (5.3-STABLE). Since we have to use a 
software suite only available on windows (AccountView 6.1, based on Visual 
Foxpro) I have worked it all out using Wine-20040505. Anything after this 
release is reported to fail, but I have heard rumors that 20041201 is 
working, albeit by patching the kernel.

So, are these rumors true? What should I do to get it running, and what are 
the consequences? I still have some issues (mostly filesystem-related) wich I 
hope (but not expect) are better solvable with the new wine. Apart from that: 
I would like to put AccountView in the wine-AppDb, and it would be nicer to 
report that it works with recent wine's to...

(btw: my email-adres seems bogus, but I use it for lists and lists only... My 
other mail-adres is strictly for suppliers and clients, so...)
