Just a bit of a follow up on Kevin's answer.
He is extremely correct in stating that if you use the Pre-2k2 version of
the adlm (elan) won't (or shouldn't, reliably) work with a multi-homed
system. Now the post 2k2 adlm (FlexLM) will work on a multi homed system
and is only dependant on the ethernet addr of the network card that you want
to use for the adlm (this is good). What I usually do on a multi-homed
system is to ping the ip addr (since the FlexLM communicates over tcp/ip, it
should have an ip addr) from an NT based (NT, 2k, XP Pro, or anything that
can do an arp) client and after the ping type arp -a (since this involved
typing in a win system I'm assuming that you know I mean at the command
prompt. For more information see
http://www.fsb-ae.com/acadnetwork/acadnetworkfaq.htm#3c and scroll down a
bit) and you can get the ethernet address of the card that you just pinged.
