Hi,
I just ran into a nightmare scenario. I have a PU license and need to
move some heavy duty processing on a second machine. So I installed IDL
6.3 with PU license on the second machine, which I access via Remote
Desktop Control because I am running out of room for yet another
monitor on my desk. To my disgust, I get a license error like "Terminal
server remote control not allowed". So IDL seems to be checking for the
RDP protocol traffic. I suppose allowing this operation could lead to
some sort of license abuse, but in my situation this is just painful.
So the question is whether I can circumvent the problem doing the
following: Install Linux on the machine, install IDL with PU license,
and then access this IDL for Linux installation via an X Client. Does
IDL for Linux allow this operation, or does it check for an X session
and block IDL from running as well?
Comments highly appreciated...
Cheers,
Haje
