That is correct sir. The process looks something like this: 1.) Connect to the terminal server and log in. 2.) Open the WUG application and minimize. 3.) Disconnect (do not log "off") by doing START/SHUTDOWN, then choosing disconnect, or clicking the "x" on the terminal server window. 4.) Reconnect to make changes as needed, rinse, repeat...
The only real disadvantage is that the WUG application cannot be automatically started on server reboot. It has been communicated that if any OS upgrade/changes require a reboot to the server are needed that the tech MUST follow the above process to restart the WUG application. -Ray -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of John Moore Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2004 11:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Running What's Up Gold as a service So if I understand you right you leave a terminal session logged in running WUG and just log in when you need to make changes? >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/08/04 11:05AM >>> Hi, We have been running WUG in a terminal server session in Windows 2K for over 2 years now. This does several things for us. Allows remote administration of the application without resorting to the web interface <--yuk!. Allows the server console to be secured by not having a logged in user. On another note, I would love to see Ipswitch do a major overhaul of the WUG user administration. There is much room for improvement in that area such as User groups, "copy user" option, etc.. Ray Williams Broadband Data Engineer II Data Engineering, New England Cox Communications Inc.

I seem to have better luck running it as a window app. Faster web response, easier to edit the maps, and several of my monitors work correctly, but I don't like leaving my server logged in.
