We have gone as far as creating a Security Group called "Visio users" and
applying it to the Visio exe file.  We put users in the group that have
purchased licenses.

Subject: [THIN] regulate licenses

If publishing a desktop, how do you guys regulate licensing for
applications? In other words, let's say that I've got 25 licenses for Visio.
I install it on a Terminal Server and 50 people have access to the Terminal
Server.

From what I've read, technically you need 50 licenses because 50 users can
"potentially" use it. Just wondered how most of you handled that.
Assuming that Citrix is not installed on top so published apps were not
possible.
