I have a program (Minitab 16) that is licensed, registered, and activated on a computer on my network, and I need to be able to run that program via remote desktop. I thought it would still run as it is still being used on that computer, but apparently it knows that I’m logged in remotely and will not run. Is there a way to do this? I know it is somewhat ambiguous, but I guess I’m wondering how the program knows I’m logged in remotely and how to stop it from knowing.
Edit: I have a single user license and the EULA states
A.2 This Software may be loaded on only one computer and used by only one user at a time. If the computer on which this Software is loaded is attached to a network, this Software must not be accessible by any other user on such network.
As pointed out below, the EULA does not define computer/machine/user/licensee/etc, so its hard to tell whether I should be able to do this or not, but regardless, it seems that I can’t; and so, I’ll search for other methods of accomplishing a similar effect, and to best adhere to the license terms.
I have a single user license.
Have you tried VNC?
