  Hi Ahmed,  unfortunately you need to install jaws on the servers as well as 
your workstation.  There is no work around.  I work in a similar environment 
where I need to access servers in this way.  Having to reboot them can be an 
issue.  Also we have been moving to ESX virtual servers and jaws won't run on 
them.  Jaws keeps crashing the virtual servers.  It is becoming a real problem.
  Depending of what kind of work you need to do on the server.  For 
troubleshooting I will often map to the servers drives and retrieve log files.  
Also if you map to the server C drive you can then access the windows event 
logs through the event viewer on your work station.
  So there are some things you can do without remoting into the server but it 
is limited.

  Hi their!
  I am using Version Jaws 9.0.2169   pro with XP pro;
  I am trying to connect to several servers to maintain them via Microsoft 
Remote desktop (RDP)
  It says in the jaws documentation that I need to install jaws on the server 
machine;
  and I have all ready have jaws on my client machine;
  Therefore my question is that I do not want to install jaws on every server 
that I am maintaining and it is not visible to reboot the server after I 
install jaws!
  so what can I do and is their any other way of actually getting RDP working 
with jaws without installing jaws on the server?
  Thanks in advance as always!
