ADLM not releasing licenses

This issue has been going on for a while
This morning people are complaining they cannot run their autocad
I have 3 network seats on subscription
I have the ADLM from the autocad 2006 cd installed
Seats are 2005. I had the 2005 ADLM installed with the same problem.
I uninstalled the 2005 ADLM and reinstalled the 2006 ADLM same issue.
The ADLM is not releasing licenses.
I ran a report day and it listed 3 seats taken.
One taken on the 10th, another the 12, and one today.
There is no way a user has had his autocad going for a week.
The license on the 12th was on a computer that I've removed from the domain
so I know that computer is not even on the network now.

So what gives, why is my license manager not releasing licenses?

Try setting the inactivity timeout to something like 8 hours. That will
free up usused licenses when there is high demand. Here is a link:

I suggest to set the timeout to the minimum, 900 seconds. It works perfect
for us.
