First, we are a long-standing ADN member. I run AutoCAD 2016 on a server without an internet connection (required for security purposes of a public company.) Recently the license for 2016 expired (even though I thought it was a perpetual license) I managed to manually activate the software by using the request code and requesting an activation code. I entered the activation code and it was accepted. However, when I start AutoCAD 2016, I see the following error: Establish an internet connection to continue. My only options are to 'try again' or 'quit'. An internet connection on this machine is not an option. Please respond ASAP. This is in a production environment.
