Ubuntu 17.10 64bit RoonServer with Roon on WINE

I really tried to get my trial working. The problem I have is that I do not have a Windows or Mac available to install the client. The RoonServer installed on my Ubuntu 17.10 64 bit desktop, but my attempts to get WINE to work with a Windows7 install of Roon was problematic.

I hope this helps to get you started.
