Act over Terminal Services

[StressedTechie]

Does Act! 6.0 support Terminal Services. If so how easy is it to install!

Thanks

They don't support terminal services, but that shouldn't stop you. I have act! 7 premium running on two different terminal servers. Works fine. The secret to getting any app running well on a TS is filemon and regmon.

They allow you to see where programs hit access denieds and so forth.

It should not be a problem as I have over 50 clients with ACT! 6 using terminal services. Be aware however that ACT 2005s user agreement specifically prohibits its use on terminal services... So no upgrades.

Are you sure TS violates the EULA? I know that it violates the Peachtree EULA, but I thought with Act you were on your own.

System Minimum Requirements for ACT! 2005 (Standard Edition):

Note: Citrix Servers, Terminal Servers, Servers that function as Domain Controllers and Windows Small Business Servers are NOT supported.

Does Not supported = Prohibited?
