  You can connect to a TWS on another computer.
  File\Database\DatabaseSettings ... Configure .. and put the IP address of
the computer running TWS.  Usually is 127.0.0.1 which is the local computer.

  Not sure if this is what you want to do though, but it might be a
work-around.

    Hello,
    I am using IB real time data and have three computers on my LAN.
Typically I trade one or two computers and do developement on my laptop. I
use my Real Account, Simulated account, and the eDemo account. This way of
becoming RT funtional on each computer is not optimum and I would much
prefer to have access to the same IB data on each of my computers. I assume
many users use a LAN and have the same problem...
    Technically data-sharing over the LAN should be very easy to implement
since IB data dribbles in at about two quotes per second, plenty slow for my
main computer to publish data on my LAN and to be used by my other computers
with virtually no degradation.
    Has Anyone done this?
    Thanks and best regards,
    herman
