Current version: 1.7
Before we can make you your floating license(s), we need you to install the license server and return to us the system id. You can find out how to do that here.
If you are updating previously installed license server software from us, please read this.

What's new in version 1.6? Posted December 17, 2009:
- rvlserver and rvlsyid now work properly if eth0 is not configured for the machine.
- Windows fix: version 1.6b (posted January 7, 2010)... fixes a problem where RVLShowStatusInBrowswer.bat had to be run as an administrator. This is no longer true.
- Version 1.6c, uploaded Jan 25, 2010, to fix some Windows issues. Now the .bat files RVLSetServer.bat, RVLStartServer.bat, RVLKillServer.bat, RVLInstallServer.bat and RVLUninstallServer.bat now work properly when the .bat files are chosen to "Run as administrator" in Windows Vista or Windows 7.
What's new in version 1.5? Posted November 5, 2009:

What's new in version 1.3? Posted July 23, 2009:

- Fixes a rare bug where licenses files were sometimes not properly read.
What's new in version 1.2.2? Posted November 21, 2008:
- Fixes a bug where the license server reports "Maximum number of threads" reached. After this error is reported, the license that was being checked out is never checked back in (leaving licenses checked out until the license server is restarted). This bug was the consequence of many machines asking for licenses at nearly the same time.
What's new in version 1.2.1? Posted October 24, 2008:
- Fixes a bug that causes licenses not to be released when multiple render jobs are started at the same time on a client machine.
- Fixes a bug where the IP address of client machines is improperly reported.
What's new in version 1.2? Posted October 3, 2008:
