If it is a local file and you Can't move it to their home directory, AND
this APP JUST HAS TO RUN!!!!, you might look at Softricity. Its not
cheap but I have had a few apps like this that wouldn't run in a
terminal server environment and this software got it to run.

Subject: [THIN] Program not running more than once due to a lock file
Hi,
We have purchased a 2 server XP farm for running a newscast client, and
our
remote trucks connect to it via wireless Sprint cards and NFuse classic.
Prior to purchasing this system, we tested it extensively under Terminal
Services, after the software company told us it would run under WTS. We
would receive a message about a log file not being created when running
more
than one instance, but otherwise it worked great, as did the Citrix
implementation.
The vendor just released a mandatory update, which suddenly "fixed" the
problem: now when a user gets the cannot create log file message, the
program quits. The first instance of the application locks a text file,
and
other instances cannot open it, so the program quits. This is so that a
workstation user cannot run more than one copy.
I've had a similar problem in the past with another old app, but it was
solved by a service resetting a registry key avery 10 seconds or so. I
can't
think of how to get around this though. Has anyone had a problem like
this
before?
