License Manager Question

[paul.trotter]

Hi, I'm installing a network version of AutoCAD 2005 on a server for 1/2 of our company. The other 1/2 of the company still needs to use the network version of 2002 that we currently have installed. My concern came when I went to install the Network License Manage for 2005 and noticed that it was installing to the same place as the 2002 network license manager. So should I hit 'next' when doing the install for the new license manager?? Or will that mess up the 2002 manager? Thanks for the help. -Paul

You should first take a backup of your old license file.
Stop the license server.
Uninstall the old NLM.
Install the new NLM.
After that you should combine the 2002 and 2005 license files.
Start the new license server.
