Hi,

I've installed a W2003 server, on that server I installed an applications
that requires a dongle. If you logon to that server, the applications works
fine (dongle is plugged into the LPT-port.)

When I set up a RDP-session, the session is ok, but the app acts as if there
is no DONGLE.

Any Help is welcome.

greetings

Applications that use dongles usually don't work with rdp. They are smart
enough to know when you try to get around the "0ne user/one dongle" rule.

Exactly.
And some applications are smart enough to be able to recognize the
dongle on the clients' redirected lpt port (in which case you can run
legally, since it again requires a dongle for every client).
