Windows 95/98 License Server
A Windows 95/98 license server can be configured to be started automatically
when Windows 95/98 starts or to be started manually.
To enable automatic license server startup, add the license server program,
lserv9x.exe, to the Windows 95/98 system StartUp folder. You may use Win-
dows Explorer to open this folder, select the lserv9x.exe shortcut, and display its
properties. You can review and change license server command line parameters
by changing the contents of the Target field on the Shortcut tab.
To start the license server manually, you simply run lserv9x.exe. You can do this
from a MS- DOS window or by double-clicking the lserv9x.exe entry in Win-
dows Explorer.
By default, when a user logs out, the license server exits. This can be changed by
providing the -b command line option to the license server. When this option is
used, the license server will keep running as a background process when a user
logs out.
When the license server is started without the -b option, a status window is cre-
ated which is used as a reminder that the license server is running. If you see this
Window or an entry for it in the taskbar, you will know that if you log out the
license server will stop. You can also stop the license server by closing this win-
dow.
