Autocad 2013 Network License will work on some computers but noth others

[johnc11]

Hello all,

I have Autocad 2013 with a network license. Before christmas it was running fine but now it will not find the network license. I have checked with other people in the office and even asked them to close the program so I know there are free licneses.

Continue to get the error " A valid license could not be obtained by the network license manager. Error [-4.132.0]

I have tried to search the forums but cannot anthing that works.

Do i need to have the netowk license manager installed on my computer?

Any help greatly recieved.

Hi John,

Welcome to the community!

Typically, the -4 error indicates that no active licenses are available at the moment. Do the following to troubleshoot the missing license:

1. Open LMTOOLS.
2. On the Server Status tab, click Perform Status Enquiry.
3. Review the result to see if there are errors with a particular license or if it is missing.
4. If necessary, request a new license file at

Thank-you for you reply Jeffrey,

I do not have access to the server to check the LMTOOLS.

I have checked and we currently have 3 licenses and 3 of my colleges can ues autocad at one time. It also appears that each computer is only selecting one license off the server. The license that I proviously uesd is "borrowed" on another computer at the moment and cannot be accessed.

How do I get my computer to use any of the the three licenses and not just one that is currently "borrowed"?

Thanks again for the help.
