Installing C Tech Floating License Server

Installation Overview

C Tech Software is provided on DVD or via download, and is automatically installed using the install program setup.exe (which will autorun if your system is set up to do so). C Tech's Floating License Server is compatible with Windows XP, Server 2003 or newer Operating Systems.  EVS/MVS (the client software) is compatible only with Windows Vistas and XP.

 

NOTE: When performing key update operations and using the Key_tools.exe program shown below, you must be logged into the console (physically at the server machine).  Remote Desktop and Terminal Services will not run properly nor detect the hardware key.

 

Windows XP, Server 2003 or newer Operating Systems

The floating license server software is provided in two different versions (forms). For Windows XP, Server 2003 or newer Operating Systems there is a "service" that will auto-install. The service has the advantage that is starts automatically on boot, does not require any user to log in, and uses very little system resources. This is ideal when the server software is to be installed on a company's computer server.

To install the service:
