Our Computing Department has, I believe, been able to install Lunar
on the network for one of our students. It has not been universally
successful in so far as some of the packages he needs do not appear
to be compatible (he is on a programming course), but it has worked
reasonable well with the majority as far as I understand. I will
forward your email to the technician concerned at this end and ask
him if he has advice for you.
