Network WYNN Installation
License Server Installation and Configuration
Overview
A WYNN Network Authorization CD is supplied with the Network
WYNN version. The following overview describes the three
primary steps to installing and configuring a license server
computer.
• Select a license server computer
You must designate one Microsoft Windows-based
computer on the network to be the license server. This
can even be the WYNN server. Install the license server
on a networked computer that is not running the WYNN
client. Make sure that this computer is always accessible.
The license server handles requests for tokens. A token
allows a WYNN client to use WYNN. The license server
issues tokens to the requesting clients until there are no
more tokens available. The number of available tokens
depends on how many license seats were purchased. For
example, if 10 seats are purchased, only 10 simultaneous
WYNN sessions are available. If an eleventh computer
tries to use the WYNN application, it is denied access to
the application until a license seat becomes available.
• Install the license server software
The WYNN Network Authorization CD contains the
network authorization utilities, documentation, and tools.
Insert the CD into the computer’s CD-ROM drive, and
follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
• Activate the license server computer
This is the only computer that requires software
activation. The other WYNN client computers do not
require authorization or activation since they obtain
tokens from the license server.
