We are looking into purchasing a server to hold our files while we share with worksets. My question is: does the server need to have its own Revit license? No one will be working on the server directly, and we do have Revit on each of the computers that we actually work off of. If it does need its own license, is there a cheaper way to get it? Is there a server version of Revit?
Thanks for the help

You don't need a license on your server in order to save and open the files located on the server. It is exactly the same as if you where saving to your pc. All you need is a shared folder that you and others can access.

We have a server that we use to acess our drawings and then we have a separate computer on the network that we have our licenses on. People can work on this computer but it is only used for the licenses and acessing the AIA documents. I believe our PC guy told us having the licenses on a separate computer would work the best, not sure if that is just our case or typical.

Cool! Those are the answers I wanted to hear.
Neither of you mentioned worksets directly. Does anyone use worksets from a server? If so, what are youre experiances?
I love Revitcity

Mate,
The typical setup for any medium to large office is to have a server where all the files are stored and all networked PC's access this information. 1000's of people use this setup with revit on a daily basis so your safe there.
Typical when using worksets one saves off a local copy of the file on the computer they are using (we just save it in my documents) and work on the file from there doing intermittent saves local and saves to central.
It works great and make sure you don't work directly on the central file as doing it this way you have that extra level of protection if the worst does happen...
HTH.

Great help.
I was thinking that it all worked that way, but I am just getting into this server thing. We have just ordered the server today. I haven't even tried worksets yet. So, anticipate more postings.
Thanks for the help.

My hosting provider takes an awfully long time to post information on my site. What could be the problem? I send mostly ftp files, but it still takes a long time. Can it be that the hosting provider has yet HDD and that's the problem.

I thought that there are no hosting providers who still provide disk space on HDD. Everyone switched to SSDs a long time ago. The speed increases manifold, you can see that if you change your hosting provider.

When addressing the aggressiveness of dog breeds, it’s crucial to keep in mind that aggression can vary between individuals and that a dog’s behavior can be heavily influenced by things like training, socialization, and surroundings. Although some dogs of a certain breed list of aggressive dog breeds
