Have a question,
Have a windows 2000 terminal server the has Navision
installed on it. (a financial Db program). When anyone
logs onto the terminal server it goes through the install
process for navision again. This was installed in install
mode through add remove programs and shows up in the
program folder for all users. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
 
The program might be detecting that it doesn't have the
required files or registry entries. I would compare two
user accounts (one that had the program installed and one
that didn't) to see if registry entries and/or files are
missing. You might be able to determine how to fix this
easily.

Try this (we have Navision too and it works):
Instead of using start->programs->Navision Financials; put a shorcut
to "\...\Program Files\Navision Financials\fin.exe" on the user
desktop.
You can configure Terminal Server options to run "\...\Program
Files\Navision Financials\fin.exe" as the users log in.

Let me know if it works ;-)

Thanks,
I looked on the application log and indeed it is stating
that there is a missing key in the registry having to do
with a mouse!! I put in the missing key and it works,
however I have admin privlidges. When I try the same
thing for joe user I get a message staing I have to have
admin rights to install or change server software, then
it bombs out.

In this case, we need to bring out the heavy ammo to fight
this application. Go get filemon or regmon from
www.sysinternals.com and run it as an admin while a normal
user tries to run the program. The output of filemon or
regmon should indicate to you what the program is trying
to do. Look in that output for access denied error
messages which would indicate incorrect NTFS permissions.
The program might be trying to write data to a restricted
directory, and in this case, it'll show you where.

If this does solve your problem, please post your results
and how you made things work. I'm sure other would love
to know how to fix this problem.
