      Can the Cloverleaf Client be installed on server (as opposed to work station. ) for the purpose of remote access        

      our method for remote access is about to change

      starting next  the only way we can acess Cloverleaf from away from the office is to RDP to our desktops that have the CL cilent on them. There is a concern if the building lost power and the work stations were down we would have no way into CL.

      the idea is to put the cilent on virtual server at our data center. Any reason we can’t do that?  

      any gotchas?

          That should work just fine. Try it out. 🙂

            Art,

              We have a similiar setup with RDP at least.  Two things we have done.  

            1. Force them to get you a battery backup for your PC.  If your PC is now critical to be on standby then it should have backup power.

            2. Your bios should have a setting for power loss to restore to last known state.  So, when you have a power outage and the power comes back your PC will reboot instead of staying powered down.

            Hope this helps,

                It might not be completely applicable, but the unsupported utility (hciaccess&) to run the GUI on the server from the back end in a x-window envrionment still seems to work.

                I have launched “hciaccess&” successfully on Cloverleaf 5.6rev5 and Cloverleaf 6.0.

                From what I saw in cloverleaf 6.0 I think it might be using JAVA instead of TK and might partially explain why it took so much longer to launch in Cloverleaf 6.0.
