Hello All

Can anyone remember the link within this forum that explains how to run 2 notes clients?

Thanks
 
It seems to have disappeared.
In any case, the solution is simple :
Install first client, rename the desktop icon accordingly, and in the icon properties be sure to direct the app to the proper ini file by adding =\filepath\notes.ini.
Install the second client, modify desktop icon to launch nlnotes.exe and redirect to corresponding ini file.

That should work.

Pascal.
 
How many of these clients can be run on 1 workstation?
 
That seems to be more a problem of hardware resources and CPU power than a Notes-related issue.
As long as each client is installed in its own environment (directory and ini file), your limit is when the PC has trouble switching from one to another.

Pascal.
 
Why would you want to run multiple notes clients on the same machine? You can use 1 client and have multiple users login.
 
I have done it in order to test code in different versions of Notes - before migrating to the next release. Not everyone can have two (or three) machines at the same time.

Pascal.
