Title: Just wondering
Post by Hootie on Jun 7th, 2007, 8:21pm
Maybe I am kinda short of understanding please forgive me if I am, but can said 5 clients(licenses) access the same usb-dongle connected to a server at the same time?; at work we have bought a 2 dongle package with the application that searches for the dongle-key and therefore the software then can be used, and it's not enough we would like to get more people on the same project., But obviously we only have 2 dongles these are Sentinel Pro Hasp; is USBoverNetwork the answer?. Thanks for your answer in advance.  ::)

Hi,
Thanks for interesting question.
USB over Network provides exclusive access to remote shared USB devices. It means that users cannot access the same dongle at the same time. BUT, if you need to use the program not simultaneously, USB over Network is the proper solution (for example if clients are in different timezones).
