+
+ Step A - Download the most recent online License data from the
+ Alias|Wavefront External Web
+
+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+To obtain license data more recent than the information included on the
+software CD, follow these instructions to obtain it from our web site.
+
+ 1. Go to the following URL to download the latest encrypted license file
+ http://www.aliaswavefront.com/en/Community/Special/keys/m45pkeys/
+ 2. Save the file in a directory of your choice. Remember the location of
+ the downloaded file as you will need it in the following instructions.
+ 3. Log in as root.
+ 4. Launch the installKey program located in the LicenseMaya directory on
+ this CD. To launch the program type:
+ ./installKey
+ 5. Use the browse button to the right of the Input file form and specify
+ the location of the downloaded Alias|Wavefront license file explained
+ above in point #1.
+ 6. If your organization uses a non-default filename for the license file,
+ click the Advanced button to specify the path and filename. The default
+ filenames for the license files are:
+ /var/flexlm/aw.dat - for node-locked licenses
+ /var/flexlm/aw_servername.dat - for floating licenses
+ 7. Click Install.
+
+ If your license successfully installed, a message appears telling you
+ the license was installed. You have completed the licensing portion.
+ If your license was not successfully installed and a message appears
+ stating no licenses were installed, go to Step B below.
+
+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ Step B - Obtaining your license from Alias|Wavefront
+
+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+To obtain your license, you must send a request to Alias|Wavefront with your
+machine information and the products you wish to license. Follow these
+instructions for each node-locked or license server machine.
+
+ 1. To obtain your license, you must include your computers unique identifier
+ number. You obtain this by running the lmhostid command which is installed
+ with Maya in the AWCommon-5.3-3 package.
+
+ For Example:
+
+ /usr/aw/COM/bin/lmhostid -ether
+
+ This will return a line of output something like the following:
+
+ The FLEXlm host ID of this machine is "00c05fa6670f"
+
+ The number between the quotes in the last field is the number that we need.
+ In this example that number is 00c05fa6670f for your machine it will be a
+ similar but different number.
+
+ 2. On any browser (it does not need to be the same machine), access and complete
+ the online SPAR (Software Product Authorization Request) form at:
+ http://www.aliaswavefront.com/spar/
+ OR
+ Complete the printed SPAR form that comes with your softwares shipment
+ and fax it to one of the offices listed on the form. Alias|Wavefront will
+ process your request and provide you with the licenses by fax, email or mail
+ as specified.
+
+ 3. Once you have received your license from Alias|Wavefront, see below for
+ instructions on installing your license.
