I've search high and low, hopefully someone has an answer.
Is it possible to access RSLinx from a terminal server session.
I've tried different ways to install, but still cannot access RSLinx through the session.

Go to support.rockwellautomation.com and search through the Knowledgebase with the keywords "RSLinx and Terminal Server".

You will find a handful of useful and informative documents, including:

Knowbase A23337371

The gist of it is that a Terminal Services session can't access the RSLinx GUI, but can do everything else you'd expect, including use RSLinx with RSView and RSLogix.
 
Thanks, it answered my question. I was trying to do a DDE link.
Looks like it may be time to try OPC

Thanks
Adam
