I have been administrating an autocad licensing server now for 3 years and have never run into the following problem. We have recently upgraded to a new server. I am able to obtain licenses from the new server, however the license manager seems to be ignoring my options file. We are now upgrading to Autocad 2006. I wanted to start using the report feature of the options file so that I could use sam report lite to generate usage data. This was not working. So I thought that I would test the situation by removing my initials from one of the groups that exists in the options file to see if it is actually being read. I found that I was still able to access the software even though my name is removed. Last year I used the RESERVE function and it worked fine. This year I tried the RESERVE function as well as the MAX function to try to achieve my goal but to no avail. Below is my options file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
