Newbies sjw Posted December 19, 2005 Newbies Share Posted December 19, 2005 I am just wondering is it possible to add File Maker Pro on my company citrix server? Thanks sjw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wim Decorte Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Sure it is. You'll need a VLA license though (Volume License Agreement) otherwise the 2nd user to open FM will get a license conflict. There are a couple of White Papers on the FMI web site about installing and using FM on Terminal Services and Citrix. If you rely on the get(userName) function at all, you may want to use a Windows logon script to write the current Windows user to the FM preferences section in the registry before launching FM.

Newbies sjw Posted December 20, 2005 Author Newbies Share Posted December 20, 2005 Thanks Wim i found this white paper at http://filemaker.com/support/whitepapers.html 'Running FileMaker Pro 7 on Citrix MetaFrame XP' But my company citrix is running on version 3, any guides, comments or advices on this..?? And whats actually the difference between get(username) and get(accountname)?? Thanks in advance sjw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted S Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 The Get(UserName) function returns the value that is entered in the User Name field in the pull down menu EDIT | PREFERENCES. This may or may not be the name of the person who is logged in. The Get(AccountName) function returns the User name of the person who is logged into Windows. For my situation I can rely on Get(AccountName) whereas Get(UserName) is iffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
