RE: User BPCS Client with Remote access

Vince,

Thanks for your information. I can understand now, because BPCS record the
Workstation ID. So, One computer only for one user at the same time.

We do also use F/R but the increase of use make our CIR unable to cover, we
try to use remote connection to eliminate size of packet.

Kusman,

We are on 6.1.01, MixedMode,  and have run the CEF and SCM clients over the 
INet to a W2K/Metaframe server.  Only one session can be run at a time 
because of the way BPCS & AS/400 identify users.  We had time out problems 
during peak INet usage hours in the US.  A better solution for us has been a

VPN with the client running on the remote desktops.  You need pretty big 
pipes to the INet, especially on the end where the AS/400 lives and there
are 
still slowdowns when the Eastern seaboard wakes up in the morning (our BPCS 
lives in Upstate NewYork, clients in London, Sydney and Singapore).  We have

a remote plant in Mississippi, USA and another in Toronto, Canada that are 
connected via a Frame Relay WAN that seem to get much better response.  FR
is 
not cheap, however.
