Library Server and multiple libraries?
« on: October 14, 2010, 03:59:21 pm »

Is it possible to share multiple libraries on a windows server, so that user on PC1 would connect to a library named ONE on the server and PC2 would connect to a library named TWO on the server, or a user would first connect to library ONE, then disconnect and connect to library TWO!

Not sure if this is possible, and if not, are there any suggested workarounds? All PCs have also their own local library! Thank you!

Library Server can only serve the current library.

There has been talk about a user-account system to partition a library, but any work on that would be for a future version (i.e. v16, v17, etc.).

Thank you for the info, Matt.

As a workaround I shared the second library on a second server, so that the user has the choice to connect to two different libraries. So far it seems to work.
