Hi,
our clients need a very long time to obtain a network license. It takes 4 minutes until Autodesk Inventor 2013 starts and I had to set the environment-variable FLEXLM_TIMEOUT with value 1000000.
Without FLEXLM_TIMEOUT the FlexLM License Finder Window occurs and I have to type in the license-server manually.
Is there a possibility to accelerate this behaviour? Or why the client can't find the license server in a short time?
We use Autodesk Education Design Academy Suite 2013. The license server uses Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit. The client uses Windows XP SP3 32 Bit.

Make sure there are no servers that are searched for that does not exists. Check ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE environment variable,
Windows registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FLEXlm License Manager\ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE,
, LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable and Licpath.loc (located in the root installation folder of the product).
To avoid extra hops in the search add your license server in the ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE environment variable and if you have multiple servers add the closest one first in the list.
In the Windows registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FLEXlm License Manager\ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE
still was entries for Inventor 2010 and 2009. This caused the error.
Great help! Thanks a lot!
