Any one using named user licenses for editor or isodraw?

Just wondering if they work through a remote desktop connection. Currently we have mostly node locked licenses and cannot open the programs through a remote session.

We have received a response from PTC regarding the counted/uncounted. The said they would correct the topic to say node locked and floating. It is not possible to have a node locked counted =1.

 

Thanks

I believe current versions of Isodraw use Flexnet licensing. The node-locked Flexnet licenses will not work for remote desktop sessions. Registered user and Concurrent (floating) user licenses should work just fine with remote desktop.

BTW, the reason for that is with a node-locked license PTC has to avoid the problem where multiple copies of the licensed application can be run at the same time using remote desktop as a workaround. That behaviour "cheats" the system to the ultimate detriment of all PTC customers.

    It's worth looking at the following article that may help CS102518 as there are different type of locked licenses.

    Shaun is the link correct? That article is for How to create a Query Builder report that shows the groups of which a user is a member in Windchill. Did not see anything about locked licenses in there.

     

    Thanks,

    The single license file is node locked and counted?

    This is what our license file has in it and it wont be added to the server.

     

    # Number of Copies = uncounted
