Hi Nick, thanks for your reply.

...each remote user has their own copy in the personal space on the Terminal server ...

What exactly do you mean here.
Is it
(a)A copy of the APP downloaded and run on the Hard Disk of the remote PC
(B)The app run from the Terminal Server for each user
(i.e. If 60 users are logged on at the same time, there are 60 copies of VFP running on the Terminal Server. If this is the case, does it not caise a Memory/Resources priblem.

Thanks for any assistance

Regards,

Gerard

The EXEs are distributed locally (each remote user has their own copy in the personal space on the Terminal server). The apps are run through the launcher (the same one I have here posted in Downloads section), so the EXE updates are done automatically whenever the master copy in the certain network share changes.

>>We are about to deploy our app on Terminal Server, to be used with upt to 4 remote locations and am lookinf for some advice/pointers.

>>Initially, set up will be as follows:
>>Central Location: 10 users
>>Remote loc 1: 2 users
>>Remotre Location 2 5 users
>>Remote location 3 8 users
>>Using Broadband through Internet for connection

>>(There is also a slight possibility of another remote site with 40 users)

>>The sort of queries I have are:
>>Will I need a sparate Comms Server at the Central Location
>>(i.e. 2 servers, one for VFP data and one to handle traffic )
>>What Spec of Server/Servers will I need
>>What is response times likely to be
>>Do I need a server at each remote location or will a Router do
>>
>>I would really appreciate feedback from anyone who has already done this
