EXCLUDE, GROUP and Active Directory

If I want to prevent certain people access to licenses, and those people exist in an AD Group, can I have the GROUP option in FlexLM reference an AD group and then use the EXCLUDE option to not allow those folks access?

Sounds very Big Brother, I know. But I'm doing my due diligence.

Thanks,

S

Hi,

 

Group option is to define people from AD not to make a
correspondence to an AD group.

In my knowledge there is nothing in FlexLm for AutoCAD like
what you want.

Right. You would have to specify a GROUP name in your adskflex.opt file and put all the users that you wish to exclude into this GROUP. Then you can use the EXCLUDE command for the Autodesk Feature code that you wish to block. There's no way to point to an existing AD group on your domain, so you will simply have to do the long-hand dirty work again yourself.
