Tim,

 

My AD is R2....   Microsoft thought it was an issue with the office
license.  Where did you get yours?   I will have to install a longhorn
AD and then a LH  TS box and see what happens...

Very odd.  I do have it running on a longhorn beta2 terminal server.
Have been playing with it via ms's equivalent of seamless windows. It
works OK (but it's not Citrix).  I haven't done outlook, but the other
apps work fine.  I even created by presentations for Briforum using it,
and showed them using PPT for Office 2003.  Needs some getting used to
and a willingness to have it go wacko once in a while since it is beta
code.

 

Doug - your license issue may be AD related.  With longhorn server you
need the "2003 R2" update to active directory.  Rather than mess with my
regular AD I just created a new vista/longhorn AD for testing and it was
fine.  I don't think this is related to Office 2007.

Yes, I have but I've had troubles with it in a longhorn environment.
It just did not run due to a license issue...   I get an error stating
this version of office is not meant to run on a Terminal Server.   I
have not tried it on 2k3 yet.    I do have it running on my xp
workstation and it works pretty good.  I'm sending this from it... 

 

I'm submitted the bug report to MS and they are working on it.   Let me
know if it runs for you.   We think it was a license key issues.

Anyone been using the 2007 beta in TS yet? I'm thinking of rolling it
out to our semi-test (Technicians use only) server shortly. Any
experiences yet?
