Re: RDi from a remote connection

As I understand it, assuming you have a named user license of RDi, you can
install it on as many PC's as you want as long as you are the user.

As far as the best way to use it....there's pluses and minuses to RDP'ing
into a PC on the work network.

If you have a flaky VPN or one that times out, using remote desktop makes
it easier to reconnect.

But I've always just run RDi locally at home connected over the VPN to the
IBM i.

What's the best way to use RDi when working remotely (like a home
office)? As I try to move from SEU to RDi for development I find myself
going back to "the old ways" because it is so much easier to do work using
SEU from home over VPN and secure telnet. I am also not sure of the
licensing rules for RDi vs the unlimited license I have for Client Access.
Do I need to purchase another RDi license for home use? I would still VPN
to work with RDi which I could then remote to my office desktop but that
just adds another layer of complication. Is anyone doing this with RDi?
