[Thinlinc-technical] Cannot log in windows-desktop profile

[Francisco Romero | VOZELIA]

Okey, I will talk to a Microsoft partner. 

On the second part, I agree with you. However, I will use TL it's a great tool. 

Thank you Peter. 

Regards. 
Francisco.

Yes, this is how we interpret the Microsoft license agreement. If you use 
a Windows server, you will need CALs regardless of if you use ThinLinc 
and/or other similar products. But for a definite answer, you need to talk 
to a Microsoft representative.

If you are only interested in running Windows applications on a Windows 
Remote Desktop server (now and forever...), a setup without ThinLinc is 
sometimes the most cost effective solution. ThinLinc will give you a few 
features though, such as SSH encryption, HTML5 client etc. 

However, the ThinLinc product is most suited where you have an interest in 
running at least some Linux/Unix applications or desktops, today or 
tomorrow. At its core, the product is a Linux Remote Desktop Server with 
great abilities to connect to other systems.
