Mr. Cheung -
IF you want ConCurrent Connections with 20 users accessing the app all at
once,
with the VNC solution -
you will need 20 machines running VFP/VNC that point back to the linux vnc
server, which in turn will feed up each WinTel VNC Workstation Instance you
need. [again - that magic number is 20]

Parts of this configuration are trivial, other parts are not.

If you are not worried about concurrency - then you can hop along with ONE
WinTel Machine and let the users 'try' to get access to it each time.
Perhaps there is some middle road with 5 to 10 machines ????

Topology, in ascii [ -> are connections, | are server pgms on a machine]
User with Browser->InterNet -> linux | vnc server -> wintel machine(s) | vnc
[1..20]
