Autodesk Network License Manager 2015

Well, it's that time again.  Time to update your Autodesk Network License Manager files to the latest and greatest (Autodesk) version.

 

Autodesk is providing version 11.12 for 2015 products. 

 

NOTE:  According to Autodesk, you MUST install the v11.12 version for 2015 products to work.  However, I have successfully gotten licenses to work on the previously maximum compatible 11.7 version.  You can read more about this disclaimer here:

You can download the Autodesk Network License Manager files here for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions:

You can always get the latest version of the NLM from the following link:

 

http://www.globes.com/support/fnp_utilities_download.htm

 

At the time of this post, the latest version is 11.12, which is the same version supplied by Autodesk.  I have zipped and attached the necessary 64-bit adskflex vendor daemon file in this message (v11.12) for your convenience.  You can also use this file if you are using the Flexera License Administrator instead of LMTOOLS.  You can find the FLEXnet License Admin also in the link above.

 

 

You can update your license file to 2015 versions once your Subscription has been fulfilled. 

 

You can use the online method to activate your license here:

Or you can can call Autodesk Product Registration and Authorization:

http://en.autodesk.ca/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=9719649&id=9830778

1-800-551-1490 > Option 1 (English) > Option 2 > (Network)

Asia / Pacific: 65.6735.5688
Europe / Middle East / Asia: 41.32.723.9595

You will need to provide your serial number and ethernet ID of the new license server.

 

For a Quick-Start Guide on configuring the Autodesk License Manager, please see my post for further information:

Good Luck!

11.4 did the trick.  External support guys were surprized and are now better informed.

The difference is the adskflex.exe vendor daemon supplied by Autodesk.  In fact, you can upgrade all the rest of the NLM files (lmgrd.exe, lmutil.exe, lmtools.exe) to version 11.12 and just keep the adskflex.exe version to 11.7 (or 11.4 in your case) and it would still work.  This is useful for when you are combining license managers with other 3rd party products that use the license manager.  This will allow you to run Autodesk licenses on other unsupported versions.

 

I believe I supplied adskflex.exe in 11.7 form earlier in this thread.  FYI.
