Rick,

The GIAdmin is windows and can be installed on a windows machine.  It 
uses the new licensing so it is stuck where ever you put it first.

The GIServer is installed on the server that will be hosting the filePro 
app also uses the new licensing so setting up a test is not practical.  
It is Windows, or Unix based not sure which one you purchased.

The GIClient is installed on each windows computer that will need to 
access the server.  This is not limited except that a set number only 
connect at one time to GIServer.

The GIAdmin will generate a file that can be distributed to setup the 
special stuff.

That is how I understand it.
