Tally.Server 9 is a trusted application for all Windows operating systems. Hence, Tally.Server 9 will be automatically listed in the exceptions list in Windows firewall. You don't need to configure Windows firewall exceptions separately for Tally.Server 9.
Tally.Server 9 Service runs as a windows service and can be viewed by executing the command "services.msc".The name of the service is "Tally.Server 9" and continues to run unless stopped explicitly. It does not require a dedicated user login to continue running. It can even run when no user are logged into the system.

By default the users can take data backup from their systems, however the same can be restricted using the Monitoring Tool.
With Tally.Server 9 Auto-backup, if enabled, will be taken in to Server Machine and no other media. Users will be restricted from changing the Auto-Backup location.
You can connect 100 - 150 users to Tally.Server 9. With Tally.Server 9, there is essentially no blocking of another user's tasks, even as new users keep getting added to the system, or because of the types of tasks being performed. However, there will be an effect on performance if you add too many users.
Yes. It will track remote users. This means that activities done by remote users like Number of Reports viewed / printed / edited, time spent, entries created etc. are tracked. However the current activity shown in front of remote user will be BLANK and not tracked. This is due to performance issue that can arise of tracking remote users' current activity over internet / low bandwidth.
The monitor tool is expected to track user's activity only if at least a company is opened by user from Tally.Server 9. If only local companies / share companies are open, no information will be tracked. As long as user has opened a company via Tally.Server 9 and IT IS the current company, even if he is on any menu, they will still be tracked under current activity as "Gateway of Tally". However "time spent" information would not be available here.
Yes. It is possible may be via customization. We have not thought of it for current Release.
We have decided not to give this feature in first release of Tally.Server 9.
