Thanks,
What does Citrix let you do? Does it let multiple
authors access the same seat requiring you to manually
enforce Macromedia's license, or are you really
installing each of those RoboHelp seats on your Citrix
servers?
(RHFM, btw, has a EULA that prohibits this kind of use
regardless of the number of seats you own; each seat
must be tied to one PC and also to specifically one
user.)
