3dsmax floating license lic file location

Hi,

We have a few 3dsmax floating licenses at our company. Everytime a new windows user account is created on a workstation, the new user have to specify the name or IP of our license server. I would like to avoid this. With all the other software tools in our company I have a *.lic file which I can copy to a special location on other computers and the software is running without any new user questions (for example the nuke.lic). I would like to know where 3dsmax saves the information of the license server name and where I can find this file. 

 

Thank you and best regards

 

chris

you can use this system variable

the licpath.lic file is in the 3ds max install directory

for example the default location is here: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2XXX

Thank you, I found no licpath.lic file, but the System variable solved the Problem !! I can distribute this with some GPO in Windows Server. Thank you.
