Re: RDi from a remote connection

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

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.
