Hi Thales and all others for sharing your valuable informantion. I think if Thales has done his project on this, then I should investigate the feasibility with some sample application. Thanks for your valuable information. On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 9:08 PM, Thales Lange wrote: > Hi Sujan. > > Yes

No you can't. Just as an .exe program can't run on a Linux box, a Windows program can't communicate with another program running on Linux. For exemple, a Windows Firefox can't fetch web pages hosted by a Linux Apache server. Such a thing NEVER happens, hopefully. Therefore, the answer is no, ex
