Hi alpha7!
Of course you can do it!
You need to:
- Download the PIM Xtreme stand-alone pack.
- Install PIM Xtreme on your windows machine. This will install PIM Xtreme without MySQL.
- Make sure you have MySQL running on your ubuntu machine (preferably MySQL 5.1).
- Go to the PIM Xtreme install folder, then the "db" folder.
Inside, look for the file "pimxdb_0.8.0.0.sql". That file is a SQL script you should run in your MySQL Server in your ubuntu machine for creating the PIM Xtreme database (named "PIMX" by default). - Run PIM Xtreme. It will show you an error screen. That's because PMI Xtreme tries to login to a local server the first time.
It will ask you if you want to open PIM Xtreme Database Manager, click "no" and the login screen will show up. - In the Login screen, enter your ubuntu machine IP (or name) in the "Server" field, and the database name ("PIMX" by default) in the "Database" field. Also enter the corresponding user and pass for accessing your MySQL Server.
Driver and port should be "{MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver}" and "3306" by default. - Click "OK" and that's it.
Please post if you have any trouble.
Regards!
