Karen,

 

If you do a server-type install on the server, then run with the –a option
on the local PC, it will prompt the user for the code and write that to the
registry on the local PC.  Non-admin local PC users should be able to do
that and run it in the future with no issues.  Any other user on the same PC
will be prompted again for the code, since the registry entry is
user-specific.

 

I think that to be able to do an install on a local PC that applies to all
users for that PC you have to have admin rights.  Even then, it is probable
(I don’t know this for certain) that each user (logged onto the local pc
with a different userid) will be prompted for the activation code.

Emmitt:   But I don't think that's 100% true.  If the first time you
run it using the -a option, and it goes out to get the userid and activation
code, and write them to the registry, won't it write it only for the current
user?   Don't you need to be logged in as an administrator if you want
to use RBase for every potential user on that computer?   This is 
something I've never been able to fully wrap my network-disabled
brain around.

The way around the install issue is to install it once on the server and
execute it from the PC with the -a option.
