Thanks for the fast reply, Neil.
This is exactly the answer I did not want to hear. Now I am afraid
that I have to ask for an "official" statement (Monty, Sinisa?)
If it helps, I can dig out my Licence serial number ...

N> Stefan,
N> Your friend has the right idea; proceed with extreme caution. I have heard
N> (from colleagues that work on this product) that Terminal server(TS) is a
N> very different animal from the standard or enterprise NT. In fact they have
N> spent many long nights troubleshooting it. Often there are lots of
N> customized applications running in conjunction with TS. They have seen it
N> crash from installing software that replaces or "updates" TS specific dlls,
N> with a blue screen result.
N> Unless you are a TS expert, it is hard to tell what these dlls are. Ghost a
N> copy of the TS machine to another, identical machine for testing, then
N> install MySQL. Simply building a second terminal server is not sufficient.
N> There may be custom libraries and other stuff on there that are not readily
N> noticable.
N> thx,
N> Neil
