We need winbox for Ubuntu/linux not wine.
we realy need or L2 mac conexion cliente from ubuntu linux

I dont think that be very dificult?
My Winbox works fine in wine on Ubuntu, I regularly connect by MAC as the routers we deploy have discovery disabled (have to type in MAC) and access is removed from same LAN range.

Native winbox for ubuntu please.
Wine works fine with MAC (L2) connection and other features.
Yes, and wine & X-Windows is really something that I would just LOVE to run on production / enterprise linux systems… ![]()
Wine works but it is uncomfortable having to recharge 500 MB (wine) in the SDD to run a 2MB application as winbox.
Why does it cost so much to compile winbox for ubuntu?
It’s very hard to build linux version? Wine can’t run on raspberrypi machines and we need winbox on linux.
Mikrotik kernel is linux but winbox linux version is not available ![]()
I need too winbox for ubuntu +1

If you use Linux then go to command lines. There is no profitable interest to port winbox to linux. Have you ever developped graphical interfaces on linux ?

Many times it is more practical to configure by winbox than by cli in addition to providing connection via mac, not by using linux means that we have to configure everything by cli.
Please winbox native to ubuntu.
Why winbox with wine is not sufficient? You have all the same features as windows users.
In what language and framework is Winbox developed? C or C++ ? Gtk or Qt?
Ideally winbox should be written in Java, let say using swing as GUI, or even much better newly created technology JavaFX
wine is not posible on raspberry pi and too in Modest resource computers. please winbox for linux,I know it does not cost much, do not be bad. Give away winbox for ubuntu for christmas.
The problem is your are asking ubuntu why not debian redhat or suse or another distro. That’s the main issue with linux
You mean like now Linux users complain about WINE as huge “useless” dependency, with Java WinBox everyone could join the party and complain the same way about Java? Yep, sounds really cool, can’t wait to have it. ![]()
WINE is awful because it increases system vulnerability, not just because of dependencies. Java would be terrible as well. People talk abour Raspberry Pi - but i guess not first gen? Because that’s what I own and It certainly can’t run any GUI with any reasonable performance so it’s just forced argument. Why not just create some CLI that can connect via mac?.. You know like config over serial port just not through serial but through MAC. WinBox might be created with some WinAPI or other windows-only crap and porting all of it would be pain and completely not work efffort.
I personally never used WinBox in my life. I’m using WebFig and CLI. I find it sufficient. The only advantage of WinBox i know is MAC connectivity. But for this we don’t need GUI.
I think WinBox is awesome and beats any other admin interface, including WebFig. But if all you’re missing is MAC telnet, then good news for you: https://github.com/haakonnessjoen/MAC-Telnet
