While there are a variety of third-party products that will work with AYS, any examples provided here are for more commonly used products.

Important

While AYS may run on non-Windows operating systems and file systems, this is not officially supported by At Your Service Software, Inc. The compatibility of these products may vary over time, and At Your Service Software, Inc. cannot warrant that they will consistently function like a native Windows installation. Your results may vary.

Note

While At Your Service Software, Inc. is providing a limited amount of technical information here to assist you in setting up your network, it is ultimately the responsibility of you and your company to work along with your network technicians and consultants to evaluate, select, install, test, and maintain these systems.

Linux supports several virtual machine environments including QEmu, Virtualbox and VMWare. If the virtual machine supports a modern version of Windows, then it should be possible to run AYS within that environment as if it was a native Windows install.

The Windows environment should be set up to use bridged networking, so that the virtual machine has its own IP address.
