    Hello all.
    I have a problem with SW license server. Computers are Windows based
    (XP & Win2k3 Server). I have a license server on one location and I'm
    trying to start SolidWorks 2006 on another location (example: location
    1 IP:10.35.20.19, location 2 IP: 10.35.30.15). When I try to start SW ,
    it returns message; License server unavailable. I have checked
    connection between computers and everything is fine, ping returns that
    connection exists between computers.

    Does anyone have any idea why doesn't it work???

    Thanks in advance!

    One solution could be:

    Close Windows firewall in license server. We had same problem.

    Check that the license server daemon is running aswell - if the sw_d
    daemon isn't running, you will get the error that you see. Best place
    to look is in the Flex log file in the license admin tool (Start >
    Programs > Solidworks SolidNetwork License Manager > SolidNetwork
    License Administrator). Click "View Log" and you can see any errors
    that occured during license server startup.

    If the server started OK, you should see a line like this in the log
    file....
