Quick Start to

SAMreport-Lite

1

This section gives you step-by-step instructions for installing SAMreport-Lite on your system.

If you have any questions that are not addressed in this Quick Start section, consult the

appropriate sections in this User's Guide.

How to Obtain a License File

Before you install SAMreport-Lite, you must obtain a license file. SAMreport-Lite

runs on any computer, but it can read only the report logs from the license

server(s) where you obtain a license file. You will be asked for the location of

this file during installation.

To obtain a license file

1 On the server where you plan to manage licenses and report on them, click:

(Windows XP) Click Start menu ? Programs ? Autodesk ? Network

License Manager ? LMTOOLS Utility

(Windows Vista) Click Start menu ? All Programs ? Autodesk ? Network

License Manager ? LMTOOLS Utility

2 In LMTOOLS, click the System Settings tab.

3 Record the host ID, which is located in the Ethernet Address field.

NOTE If your server has more than one Ethernet adapter, select one that

corresponds to a physical network adapter.

4 Exit LMTOOLS.
