Something I can contribute! I use RD to access servers etc from offsite...but that's generally for spot instances. VPN is my vote for accessing files/network shares from home...install MC at home and grabbing license from the work server etc etc. I've never tried driving MC remotely using RD however...but i can't imagine it's a great experience. I know trying to drive Solidworks through a RD window ain't my cup of tea for sure. There used to be something that prevented RD from working with OpenGL...but take that w a grain of salt bc that could've been remedied years ago for all i know. Luckily i've been able to match my home equipment to my work equipment...and that makes gateway-to-gateway VPN setup relatively...uh...painless. Completely my opinion...VPN works for us...very well...and I'm reasonably certain things are buttoned-up well security-wise. I would expect with decent hardware (Ubiquity-level stuff) you should be able to easily handle 25+ connections (??). Remote Desktop is basically on every Windows machine...shouldn't be too hard to at least give it a test drive for what you're trying to do.

Self-admitted Newb when it comes to machining in general...or maybe better way to say it is I'm trying to learn continually... This piqued my interest when it was touched on in another thread ( Boss Milling LOGO ) so I thought I'd ask here; small arcs (in dynamic toolpaths) being linear bearing killers... How small is considered small? Is there a rule of thumb (%) never to dip below? Steel...aluminum...other...? Haven't done much research on the topic...but machines don't grow on trees for some of us...so wondering what the community had to say...

Not sure the Microsoft term for them...but pressing Alt key briefly (a second?) will produce those. Pressing Alt again gets them gone.

Good point on the double-semicolon removal - I wrote it but forgot to highlight the fact that needs to be "uncommented" or it wont work. In addition - I'm not showing that I had to open anything up on the firewalls we've got setup here...there are hasp app permissions for a domain network checked...but i don't know that we had to manually set any of that.

Not an IT expert by any stretch...but having a well-working network is certainly a pre-requisite. Can you ping the remote license machine from home? My VPN is a 'gateway to gateway' so may cause things to be different than other VPN setups. I 'simply' add the IP address of the remote server on my home PC nethasp.ini file. (located in D:\Program Files\Mastercam 2020\Mastercam in my case). Not 100 % certain...but I'd make sure you place the entry in the right section of the file... [NH_TCPIP] NH_SERVER_ADDR = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <----Your server remote LAN IP address here... I cannot remember if I had to open any ports or change firewall rules - gut says no - but then again it's one of those things ya set and move on. If I can manage to remember, I'll check tomorrow.
