well location and translation do seem to affect things ms. For several
years 'unpaidfor' copies of VFP were available in the Czech Republic,
with ms very openly turning Nelson's eye. So the habit may have stuck.
It could also be that the EU have a different view on software licences.

So, to simplify, you want to run multiple copies of Windows but you
don't want to pay Microsoft for the license to do that?
I'm not sure you can do that.
The TSplus software is based in Czechoslovakia and written by
programmers in Russia and Paris. It's possible this is a difference in
legal jurisdictions, or something lost in translation, or flat-out
piracy, but I don't think this will fly in the U.S.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. We're actually looking for the
RDP solution for our clients to run our application in a Terminal Services
Session on the cloud server. We use Simple Help www.simple-help.com and
LogMeIn to connect to them for remote support. The Users properties on the
server are configured to automatically start our VFP application session
upon login. So from what I can see, TSplus could be a solution. Reading
TSplus's Benefits overview they claim that there is No requirement for
Terminal Service CALs. No need for Terminal Service (Remote Desktop
Services) license manager. However one of the posts indicates that M$ still
requires CALs.

Subject: RE: Remote Desktop Options
For remote control I use Splashtop Business (splashtop.com) and for one off
support they have an add on Splashtop SOS which allows you to remote connect
to a user for a one off session with minimal setup by the remote end and you
can connect via iPad's, Androids and also iPhones... yes I do the iphone
connect back to my office on an iPhone 6s with my two screens with no
problem at all. Just as good as Teamviewer but cheaper.
On the SDP end I use Microsoft's own software on PC and Microsoft's
equivalent on iPad via a VPN back to the office which is very stable indeed.
Alan's point about remote access RDP and remote control (above) are very
valid as they are completely different beasts.

Subject: Remote Desktop Options
Most of our clients use the Remote Desktop App RDP in Windows, but clients
have experienced the session screen turning black after some time. We found
a Columbus Remote Desktop that seems to work fine, but it doesn't map local
drives. Any Remote Desktop apps ProFoxers can recommend?
