I don't think the netsetup gains you very much, in 5.4 you can have one install of point and using the winpoint.ini file redirect the temp directory and user directory to some thing specific like their w drive.

What else do I need to do? If it's that simple why is there a 4 page topic discussing the subject and this is not mentioned? If it is mentioned I missed it somehow (woudn't be the first time).

That prompts the question: Why is this topic still pinned if it's out dated that badly?

Where can I find this updated information at? Is this Terminal Services installation now supported or what? I haven't seen any information about this here, in the manuals or anywhere else.

All I'm trying to do is set this up as simply as possible. I have a working setup right now. There may be  better and easier ways to do it, I don't know.

If you know where this information is located at please clue me in, I am a newbie at Point.

Thanks in advance, Jack

If you have a working solution then stick with it.  Calyx still does not support Point running under TS/Citrix.  Right now the information is scattered through out the Citrix/Terminal server threads and the best way stay on top of every thing sign up for the rss feed.

Hello,

I am fairly new to forum. I inherited Calyx when coworker left. Currently running Calyx Point 5.3, clients login to terminal server, which then accesses separate server where SQL functions are installed. All is running well. Found disks for 5.4. Have been watching message board to learn what I can about update. Definitely appreciate this message board. My question is how do I sign up for "rss feed" ? 

Thank you,
jean

There are a number of ways to sign up for RSS feeds.

1. Internet Explorer 7.0 has it built in to the browser. So does Firefox.

2. You can get a free RSS reader that sits in system tray and alerts you of new messages. Google "free rss reader".

I recommend using your web browser. To sign up for a RSS feed, in IE 7.0 simply click the RSS icon on the messageboard home page for the feed you want to subscribe to, then click the star icon with the + sign on it, and choose Subscribe to this Feed.

In Firefox, click the RSS icon on the messageboard home page for the feed you want and click Subscribe Now.

There's also a topic in the Miscellaneous forum about it.

Hi,

My client is having an issue with their Point terminal server install that I did for them based off information I used from this forum. According to my client this is whats going on.
"What happens is that the last user that logs in, sets the rights for the everyone logged in at the time. For example, I have another folder to which only admin’s have rights to see, however if I’m logged in and then another user logs in to point, I can non longer have access to that folder."

Any suggestions on what could be going on? I'll post a copy of the logon script I use plus the winpoint.ini file. Any hlp would be greatly appreciated.

Logon Script:

Shouldn't the winpoint.ini file have a "user=%path to user folder%" statement. I'm not where I can check mine, but it seems like I rememer seeing this statement. This could be the problem.
