    Is there anything unique in the variale list besides username that we can request a lisp to look for, and if it is within the parameter , it allows the user to use the lisp, and if the parameter are not matched, do not allow the user to use the lisp?

    Cheers all

  2. We currently use the network Domain and the AutoCAD serial number. This prevents members of staff taking copies and using it else where.

    We also have a date stamp, which expires every 6 months

    The AutoCAD serial number is probably most effective, but how do I access it?

    Hi mnash

    (getvar "_PKSER") returns the serial number...

    Consider, if your workstations are installed by Ghost or something similar,
    you've the same serial numbers.
    If you like to have more infos about AutoCAD visit my homepage -> Free Stuff
    and search for 'VxGetAcadLicenseInfos'.
    In addition, you can use also the serial number of the harddrive.
    For accessing HD infos search for 'VxGetDriveInfos'

    Cheers

    You can also check the user login or store a variable in the user area of
    the computer system environment.

    Sounds exactly like what we do :) This may have come out of a previous
    discussion, I know I've sketched out my general scheme in here before.
