when i connect to my computer through windows Remote Desktop i get the message

ERROR: Houdini failed to start OpenGl and cannot continue

i get the same error even if i just want to open Licence Administrator
I tried set HOUDINI_OGL_SOFTWARE = 1 with no luck

Is there any way to run houdini 10 through remote desktop?
H9.5 worsk fine
or is there a way to manage my licences through command line?

H10.290 win xp64

Perhaps you can try use NX (http://nomachine.com/) [nomachine.com] - H10 works just great under NX now,1 whereas H9.5 didn't work too well (would crash NX after 20 secs).

We're under Linux, btw, not Windows. It's possible NX doesn't work with H10 under Windows either.
