Hi,

 

I was wondering with BOARD 11 now released - if it's possible to have BOARD 10 and BOARD 11 server installed concurrently on the same machine. We would like to try using the new BOARD 11, but still have clients on BOARD 10 and would like to be able to work on both on our own server. Is this possible?

 

Thanks,

Stephen

    Hello Stephen,

    no: you can install only one Board Server on a single server/laptop.

    That is because they have the same name as a Windows process, and MS Windows does not let to have two different processes with the same name.

     

    You can install all the Board Windows Client you need (try to install just one version with "auto-update" option and set the /chooseclient parameter in the launch-link) and you obviously use as many browsers as you want.

     

    hope this helps,
