Groups in Option File

I'd like to know if the group definition in the option file of Flexlm
can be a group of my network domain (like GROUP DOMAIN\MYGROUP user1 user2
user3) ?
I've been trying to do this, but it's not working. The user1, for
exemple, can't have its licence.

If it's not possible, where do I define my users ?
I'm doing like this:

GROUP DOMAIN\MYGROUP user1 user2 user3

RESERVE 1 XXXXMDT_2004_0F GROUP DOMAIN\MYGROUP

What's wrong ?

Thanks,

Ralf Davi.

 

I think you are mixing 2 things:
OR you do decare your groups yourself:
GROUP MYGROUP1 user1 user2 user 3
Reserve ...... GROUP MYGROUP1

OR you use windows domain groups:
Users are defined in the windows Domain

Reserve ..... GROUP YOURWINDOWSDOMAIN\THEWINDOWSGROUPNAME

seek in that direction...

 

I'm trying to use like u said: "Reserve ..... GROUP DOMAIN\GROUP", but
it can't find the licence. I tryed all letter upcase, lowcase, and other
combinations about latter-cases, but nothing. In the example u write
everything in upcase. Here it doesn't works.
What can it be ?

Thanks.

 

I don't use it myself so, i think it's like this.
In your LIC file there should be something like
VENDOR ADESK
or
VENDOR AUTODESK
and lower, ther is a
INCREMENT acad2004 permanent ...
Check for the correct vendor and application name, i assume onlyu that it is adesk an acad2004...

So you then have to make a file adesk.opt or autodesk.opt, witch is an ASCII text file. Make it with notepad, be sure you don't save it as adesk.opt.txt.
In that opt file we are going to make a group with 2 users, let's say "ralf" and "david". (you have to use your windows-logon, i assume now that it is ralf)

**** begin adesk.opt ****
INCLUDE mygroup1 USER ralf
INCLUDE mygroup1 USER david

RESERVE 2 acad2004 GROUP mygroup1
MAX 2 acad2004 GROUP mygroup1
*** end adesk.opt ***

something like that should do the trick

 

Sorry guys, you can not use operating system groups in the options file.
You must define the group in the options file using the syntax documented in
the FLEXlm End users Guide.
