I have an old version of a windows database program for Homoeopathic medicine repertorisation. If you are curious take a look at
Now this is a windows only program and comes as an installable cd w/ a HASP hardware lock (which can either be parallel port or USB type).
I checked out the alladin site at
http://www.aladdin.com/support/hasp/hasp4/linuxdrv.asp
for linux drivers and the only drivers they have are for Suse 8.x, 9.x and RedHat 8.x and 9.x according to the readme that came w/ the download.
My question is has anybody been able to get these locks recognised under linux ? The problem is doubly compounded as I would like to run the program under wine.
Of course the vendor of the database has no idea what would be required to run the program under linux.
thanks,
Sharukh.
