Desktop use from Guest (Non-Administrator) Account - D-Tools Forum

Memphix · 01-14-2008, 06:15 AM

We are about to upgrade our server and would like to know if SI5 will work from a Guest Login (non-administrator) login to windows? Does anyone do this currently, will this work?

I believe this should work as the licence is only in use when you login in to D-Tools.

The new server will allow portable profiles and in order for that to operate you don't login as the administrator on the desktop computer. I believe the server will be running Windows 2003.

We are having all sorts of issues with this. This is the only software we have where it looks like the user has to have admin rights in order to just run it.

Is this with SI5/SI4? Is your network setup as a domain?

Can someone else confirm this issue?

I'd recommend you make sure you install the server components on the Admin account on your server machine.
I can't confirm this is a problem as there were a few more elements involved. I updated our server from 5 to 5.1 as a non-admin login which led me to serious problems. After rolling back the software and re-installing it as the admin it has run just fine.
