Is it possible to borrow a license onto a machine under a particular user
log-on and then have that license available to anybody that uses the
machine?

We recently sent a machine out to a site which had a borrowed license put on
it by one of the users in the office and when it got to site and a new user
logged on, the license was not available - instead looking for a network
connection. I would have thought that the license would be available to the
machine and not the user in this instance but it doesn't appear to be the
case.

Any ideas anybody?

No, I believe that Autodesk's configuration of FlexLM assigns a new
license based on user+host.

How about setting up a generic user account on that machine or on the
domain for this case?
