Thread Anyone using EDB C/S on Linux?

Does anyone have any experience of running EDB C/S v2.1x on Linux?

Some day (soon) I may be asked to export my EDB Windows DB C/S (Unicode default collation) to a Linux box and I need to know if it is feasible. The client app will still be running on Windows XP/7/8 but the DB server will be some flavor of Linux.

Anything to watch out for? Problems? Differences between the Windows version?

TIA

The biggest issue currently is the 32-bit/64-bit issue.  ElevateDB is only
available in 32-bit binary form for Linux right now, and you can't run
32-bit binaries on 64-bit versions of Linux without installing the 32-bit
libraries:
