I have a VFP app that's gone though the same cycle (2.5 to 9.0) that runs off a terminal server with an average of 55 users.

The box has a LOT of memory in it and the network is quite solid. The users don't experience issues with performance - the only complaint I have is the insane cost of that many TS licenses. I have another client in a similar situation that opted for Citrix - which works just as well - but from what I was told it was quite a bit cheaper to implement.


>Alan,
>Sorry, I am not interested in the job ( I am but I live in Ga and don't want to move ) but I do have a question. I have an app that, if anything, is larger that what you are talking about. It also began life in FoxPro DOS 2.5 and is now in VFP 9. The question is : How do you get 35-40 users running sessions of Terminal Server and VFP on one machine. What kind of performance do you get? What are the specs on the servers? Thanks for any input.
