Running Outlook under Ubuntu (part 1)
June 10, 2008First up, I’m going to try running through the instructions on this site to try this thing called Virtualbox (sounds impressive). I’m not going to even try and go through the instructions here, but I’ll put in any extra little snippets which I’ve had to tweak to get the thing to work. I’ll be using Outlook 2003…
To install it, I’ll use the installer in Add/Remove programs (I’m still not comfortable in the command line!). It shows up in the repositories, but having a look at it, I’m not sure if it’s a late enough version….
…
Crap, no it isn’t. It’s version 1.50, which I uninstalled and grabbed the latest version after finding my way here.
Did the changes to the network binding per the instructions, which hosed my network connection as promised, so I rebooted. Then more fun started….
