Is it possible to install multiple copies of the same software on a single server which serves as the processing unit for many thin clients?
To be precise, here's the description of the case.
1. There are 5 thin clients connected to a single server.
2. There are 5 AutoCAD LT licenses.
Now, can we install all the 5 seats of AutoCAD LT on a single server so that 5 people can access it on 5 thin clients simultaneously?
If yes, someone please tell us the procedure to install it.

This is only supported using Citrix with network licenses. Otherwise it is a violation of the license agreement.

Except only in the Inventor LT Suite. Though, I have found there is no way to convert AutoCAD LT to network even if you do have Inventor LT licenses available. That means the AutoCAD LT in Inventor LT Suite must be slightly different on installation.

Can i just confirm, is this deffinitely the case?
Yes, it is against the EULA to run AutoCAD thru a thin client setup.
A thin client today is a compact piece of computing technology that accesses data remotely through a connection to a server and brings a virtual desktop to the user.

Thanks?
I don't quite follow how this is relevant to the discussion. Installing on a thin client or accessing any Autodesk installation remotely on a server violates the license agreement.
