My understanding of this is that AutoDesk developed a "Self Hosted" version with Release 2002. They only marketed it to their premier license holders (50 or more). And because of lack of interest scrapped the version. Most resellers didn't even know about it because premier license holders deal with AutoDesk directly not through the reseller channels. I was able to get in contact with some AutoDesk people and they did some research for me. My understanding is that it doesn't exist and it never really made it to market. -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rick Mack Sent: Friday, December 02, 2005 3:27 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [THIN] Re: AutoCad on Citrix?

Is that special code something that AutoDesk will give customers or is that something that someone else has developed?

Alternatively you can also get creative by simply renaming the executable, which lets you run 2 instances of each named version of the executable. One issue with AutoCAD 2006 is that users have to have the SeCreateGlobalPrivilege right to run AutoCAD.

We ran it many times over the years with surpisingly good success. It has been a little while, but last time we looked at it AutoCAD did not support multiple concurrent sessions on a TS box due to licensing. You might check out the status of this is multiple sessions are required.... Steve Greenberg Thin Client Computing 34522 N.

It looks like I may have a need for AutoCad on Citrix. Has anyone tried this? If AutoCad does not work how about a good viewer that works in Citrix?
