Hello everybody. I would appreciate any answer. I have a gaming cafe. The problem is very concerning for me and the prosperity of my bussines. Clients come play their prefered game , and decide to leave when a mission is completed. After that another client play the same game at the same pc starting it from the beginnig or playing where the other costumer left. This is very boring i guess you know. when the first client comes his game is restarted or in an advanced level. Another problem is that when he comes and his "prefered pc" is busy he leaves to come another time. So as a solution i have this on my mind: every client can have an account with their username and passw. when they are logged in they can play and the files are saved somewhere in a server. then he can came another time and sit in another pc, logs in with username and passw and the saved files of his games are accessed. So this username-passw how can be creared? plz help me couse this is very disturbing. And i dont want people to leave couse i have so many bills to pay and the money to the bank. i feel that this will be the soltuion. plz help me. give me some advices. Tell me if this can be done in this way. if not, in what way . thnx in advance.

You can setup roaming profiles on the server, that way whichever client the user logs into they will get their same personalized desktop. You would want to make sure wherever the game writes savegame information to is also stored on the server, preferably in the users home directory, so they can access them from whichever client they use.

This level of administration will take some work to get up and running, and if you are unsure of the process you will want to get a professional network admin.

FYI in my description Client = Computer
