Hello Bruce,
We are not using local views, nor local Vobs. Because of this, we don't need
the albd-service installed on all our NT workstations.
If we start the log-browser, it takes the first workstation it encounters
that is running the albd-server, which is a Clearcase server.
You can specify this during the site-prep (Disable the creation of local
dynamic views)
Hope this helps,
Christophe Beunens
