Setting up AutoCAD 2006 network licences to timeout

[nickeshaffer]

Most of the network liscensed programs we have here 'timeout' after an hour without use... is there anyway we can get AutoCAD to do that? I just looked it up and i have held an active liscense since 8JUL06 at 8am (and have restarted my computer every day)

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

Create a text file named ADSKFLEX.OPT and save it to the directory containing the license file on the LM.

In this file, put this line:

TIMEOUTALL 5400

(where 5400 is the number of seconds of inactivity at which the license can be reclaimed)

Restart the LM and you are done.
