flexlm timeout on client

[Anonymous]

Hello,
in our network are different servers with license manager flexlm. The clients can get the license from one from them.
I want that first that one is used in the subnet with the client. But often other servers are used because the prefered server doesn't answer quick enough. Can I modify a "timeout" in the client?
Thanks for any help.

Hi Uwe,

We used to have the ELMTIMEOUT variable in AutoCAD 2000/i, but I am not sure if this is implemented
in AutoCAD 2002 and verticals. I will check and reply back.

Sorry Uwe. Just to confirm there is no equivalent for use with FLEXlm.
