Remote Sessions with X terminals

If you log into a remote workstation using 'rlogin' or 'telnet', you use one license per ARC session. Once your display is set, each additional ARC process running in a remote command prompt window uses another license. Any command prompt window executing on a remote host, regardless of where it is being displayed, will use an additional license.

If your display is set to a remote machine and you initiate a remote session, you will check out an additional license, even if your ArcInfo session is local, running on your local CPU.

You spawn new command prompt windows from xterm1. Each of these, including term1, is remote and will take a license.

If you boot your X terminal locally on a host and you remotely logged in to a different workstation and start up ARC, you’ll initiate a remote session, thereby taking another license.
