Hi,

is there an option to allow non Admins to use ptcflush/lmremove only on a Windows based FLEXlm server?

but not lmdown or so?

adminOnly yes, enables all these features, afaik.

Hi,

read https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS31332 document ...

  • For FLEXNet Admin License Server version 11.10.1
    • Stop the license server
    • Go to the installation directory of FLEXNet Admin License Server 11.10.1 
    • Go to the “conf” folder and open “server.xml” in WordPad
    • Make the changes in the server.xml file as per a following example:
      <licenseServer adminOnly="true" .................... licenseReclaimAllowed="false"
                     
                                                         -- To --
                                     
      <licenseServer adminOnly="false" ................... licenseReclaimAllowed="true"
    • Start the license server

Hi,

it looks like you need to grant rights to lmadmin_ptc service to specific user.

Please read https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/windows-security/grant-users-rights-manage-services for inspiration.
