    Support,

    Is the AutoCAD 2000 license manager Y2K compliant. I was told that the
    14.01 version was, but when someone rolled it to the year 2000, and the
    license manager would not start.

    Thanks,

    Hello, John,

    I think your problem using the R14.01 (AdLM ver 5.0.1c) license manager was
    caused by the time difference between the AdLM server and the workstations.
    I'll bet that if you roll the dates of both server and workstation, AdLM
    would issue licenses. You may have a problem when you reset the date back.
    AdLM has a security mechanism that may be triggered by such date
    manipulation. If AdLM does not work after rolling the date back (on both
    the server and workstations), you must uninstall AdLM, then delete the AdLM
    directory and all of its contents, reinstall and reauthorize AdLM.

    Don't forget to stop the license manager prior to making any manual
    time/date changes.
