Whoops. Follow up question(s):
The document does not refer to Viz specifically, but I dont think that
matters much. But how do you handle the environment variables for Viz vs.
2002? I mean, if the same servers in all offices are serving up Viz and
2002 on the same hostname, it really doesn't matter. But from what I can
tell, I'm now forced to do that. How do you config the variable on machines
running both Viz and 2002, that might need differenent LM_LICENSE_FILE
variables?
Thanks,
Mike
