Getting the Unique Host ID of a License Server
To obtain license codes for Creative Finishing software, you must obtain the
unique host ID of the license server. This ID is used to confirm your Creative
Finishing Software license and issue license codes.
NOTE For a redundant network license server configuration, you must get the
unique host ID of all license servers.
To get the unique host ID of the license server:
1 Open a terminal and type:
/usr/local/bin/dlhostid
A message appears indicating the dlhostid of the machine. For example
(your value will differ):
The Discreet host ID of this machine is
“DLHOST01=25231AEF83AD9D5E9B2FA270DF4F20B1”
