This one may stump you, it sure the hell has stumped me.
The office where I work is running a terminal server with neoware thin clients for about 13 users (the rest are on actual puters). Now, aside from the normal annoying performance, we're having real issues with WordPerfect in particular. It is unreasonably slow..freezing up, stuttering, and taking from 5-15 minutes to print at times. Rebooting the terminal server will clear things up with WP for a day or two..but inevitably it gets borked again.
I could reboot it everyday, but inevitably someone is working on it (many folks VPN and work from home), and people don't log off (I haven't really figured out how to automate a reboot for the terminal server without it getting hung up asking me if I want to kick people off
In the end, its not that urgent because we're switching to Word at the end of the year, as soon as we can get someone in to train the staff. (I swear the legal profession is the last bastion of WordPerfect).
Anyone have suggestions for how to fix the problem itself, or how I can automate a reboot?
