+ | =====Question===== | ||
+ | We recently purchased a Rhino for Mac Education Lab License. What are some strategies to help deploy it configured to use a Zoo license server on several computers at our university? | ||
+ | |||
+ | We use [[http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | In addition to the **LIC** file, Rhino looks for a **LicensesZooClient.Settings** file. It contains the host name or IP address of your Zoo server. See [[https:// | ||

+ | |||
+ | **NOTES: | ||
+ | |||
+ | - A common mistake is to confuse /// | ||
+ | - Also, Rhino 6 and Rhino 7 create the Zoo license files under **License Manager** in explicit **6** & **7** subfolder, while Rhino 5 creates its files in the root of **License Manager** and **License** subfolder. In other words, Rhino 5 does not create a **5** subfolder. | ||
+ | - For standalone licenses, the license file file is encrypted, unreadable, and unique per system. It cannot be copied to different computers for deployment. | ||
+ | - For LAN Zoo and Cloud Zoo licenses, the license file is clear text, and can be moved between one system and another. | ||
