Astronaut TMG-CPRS in Linux

I have not been successful in running TMG-CPRS in Wine or on the Mono platform. However, there is no problem running in a virtual machine running Windows.

Install VirtualBox in Linux. (I use Ubuntu/Kubuntu -- see Installing VirtualBox in Kubuntu.
Create a new virtual machine. A virtual machine running Windows 98 should be satisfactory.
Install Windows 98SE (or Windows XP if you have a spare license) in the virtual machine.
Install the Astronaut CPRS package into Windows in the virtual machine as usual.
Configure Windows (within the virtual machine) so it starts up AstronautSSH as well as TMG-CPRS at startup. That way whenever the virtual machine starts, both the SSH tunnel and TMG-CPRS will start (without intervention).

Create a Menu Item / Shortcut in (K)Ubuntu Linux to start the virtual machine automatically. In the example below, the virtual machine I created in VirtualBox is named Win98SE. In the Command: line of the Menu Item / Shortcut I use

virtualbox -startvm "Win98SE"

OpenVistA can run completely in Linux.

Install the OpenVistA server.
Install the Linux version of the OpenVistA-CIS client package (which runs using the Mono platform).
