1. First, as the NavisWorks License server will need to be restarted, get everybody who is accessing
the server to close JetStream and go to the Services dialog (from Administration Tools) and stop the
NavisWorks Licensing service.
2. In the License Manager, go to the Current Licenses tab, click on the serial number of the networked
product and click Properties.
3. There should be a semi-colon (;) seperated list of all the PCs that have access to the networked
licenses in the text box called User machine locking. Delete the PC name that you want to prevent
from accessing networked license.
4. Click OK on the dialog to close it and close the License Manager.
5. Restart the NavisWorks Licensing service in the Windows Services panel, on the server.
6. Before any other JetStream client requests licenses from the server, set up the client that couldn't
previously access a license from the server, as described in Setting up a client.
3.3. Restricting use of floating licenses
If you have a small number of floating licenses for a particular product and a large number of JetStream
users, you may want to restrict use of these floating licenses to a small group of users. To do this:
1. First, as the NavisWorks License server will need to be restarted, get everybody who is accessing
the server to close JetStream and go to the Services dialog (from Administration Tools) and stop the
NavisWorks Licensing service.
2. In the License Manager, go to the Current Licenses tab, click on the serial number of the floating
product and click Properties.
3. There should be a a semi-colon (;) seperated list of all the PCs that have access to the floating
licenses in the text box called User machine locking. If no names are listed, then the floating
licenses are available to all users. If any names are listed, the floating licenses are only available to
the listed PCs. You can list more PC names than you have floating licenses.
4. Click OK on the dialog to close it and close the License Manager.
5. Restart the NavisWorks Licensing service in the Windows Services panel, on the server.
3.4. Combining fixed and networked licenses
It is possible to combine fixed licenses and networked licenses if, for example, you have a docked laptop
that needs to be taken on-site and still have access to your JetStream Roamer license. To achieve this,
simply install and license those JetStream products that you need to be accessible at all times as fixed
licenses. Then, to get access to any plugins from the server when the laptop is docked on the network,
simply point the laptop to the server as described in Setting up a client. NavisWorks License Manager will
collect the local fixed licenses first and try to collact any other licenses available from the server, as
shown in the Network Modules tab and based on your Startup Preferences.
3.5. Refreshing the license manager
