[AccessD] OT - Software to Limit user Access on Computer

[James Button]

Maybe worth trying the forum at
<Support issues for windows in UK HE & FE <WINDOWS-UK at JISCMAIL.AC.UK>>

University and college technicians may have a solution they can point you
towards.

Then there are computer systems at Libraries provided under council control
where the systems seem to be virtual environments presented from images 
so that clients can browse  the web, with a new environment with most added
facilities removed, and the admin level - or even setup access removed
presented at each new logon.

Probably a lot of work  if you will be allowing the MS updates to deal with
newly identified closures of  built-in security breach exploits.

Hi David

OK. But if the potential benefit is that low, I wouldn't spend time on the
project, not even if the server would be virtualised requiring no additional
hardware.

Hi Gustav,

We are looking for a long term solution with potential purchasers being able to
play with our software before purchasing.

I was told that a licence for Windows Server would be more expensive than the
benefit we would get from it.

Regards

David

Hi David

Windows Server 2022 will run for 90 days without a license.
Configured as a Terminal Server, it will allow multiple logins without a license
server, though limited to 60 minutes for each session. If timeout is reached,
just log on again.

To launch the application, consider implementing:
