Win -> Linux

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Hi All,

I have been using Windows for ages but also have been using Mandrake 
Linux 9.0 for a while. The intention is to move any critical business 
functions and data from buggy/insecure Windows to the relative safety of 
Linux / BSD. As part of that process I am porting a large project from 
VB5 to Euphoria.

Once I had a version running under Win32, it only took a few small 
changes to make it work under Linux. The "dir" function works 
differently in Linux,  x = dir("*") wont return anything even though it 
works on the command line !!

Try Mozilla its very much like NetScape, Konqueror is also OK but does 
not work with all web sites especially ones that use M$ Stuff like ASP.

You also might look at Windows emulators like Wine,

Does anyone know how to setup a mail server on Mandrake Linux ??
