Although not a USB stick, but still small, low in power and x86 :

It probably costs less than a flexlm dongle (if it was an option).

Windows I don't know, it works on any other OS ;)
A solution on OSX is for instance, to run Linux on
Virtualbox (or Parallels or any other emulator).
this does mean though that every time you want to
use the USB license you need to start an extra OS
on your comp. I tested that an it works...

Hmmm...
So I'm confused. Is this possible or not? To walk around with a Mac
address in my pocket and a license that works with it?

Hey Ron,
That order is to choose the default gateway.
Unfortunately the "ifconfig" command in the terminal
still orders de NICs aphabetically (the way the kernel
loads them).
The hostname points to this NIC which is what FLEXlm
uses.
The weird thing is that this used to be the same on
FreeBSD, using the linux environment, but since the
last update it's been not a problem anymore.
I expected similar results in OSX but I can't get it to
work...
I am using OSX 10.6.8 still though. Maybe in the later
versions this is possible.
In Linux (I use OpenSUSE) you can change the order
of the network cards in a way that the first one detected
is a USB dongle for instance. yet i assume this isn't
necessary anymore with the latest FLEXlm server...

Hey Arno,
on OSX you can actually set the order of your network ports.
Go to System Preferences / Network / bottom left settings button
and click "set service order...".
Isn't that what you're looking for?

If you launch Nuke 7 without a license, the status report
says it doesn't find an RLM license, so I guess is the Foundry
is switching Nuke over to RLM as well. Great!
I just checked my USB Ethernet dongle with the new license
server on OSX but it failed... I guess it only works on Linux/BSD
servers. In OSX you can't choose the order of appearance of
the nics.
As far as I could check this is not important anymore in
Linux/BSD
but in OSX it obviously is. (haven't got anything Windows here)
I've got a Raspberry Pi here, and I think it's not worth the
effort
of getting the licenseserver to run on it.
Why don't you get an old PC somewhere, install any Linux on it
and serve the licenses over the web? Really any PC will do as
long as it's x86.

I do not know to much about coding when it comes to

a license server that would run on a Arm based device i.e.
raspberry PI, would this be a complete rewrite or just a

Just yo say that I too would love a portable license
server solution. As much as I need my laptop most of the
time that I need a Nuke license, it does seem a little
over the top for jobs that I bring my own license to and
am provided with a workstation.
What are the plans for FLEX anyway? Will it be replaced
by RLM eventually?
It seems to make sense to only have to deal with one kind
of license managing system for all Foundry products.
And would RLM be capable of such a portable solution?
Also, what about FLEX's "checkout/checkin" features to
temporarily "borrow" a licenses between machines. Will
that sort of thing be available for Foundry products
eventually? It certainly would make life easier for those
freelancers that own a license as part of their
compositing services and work both fro home and on site.
Thanks for bringing this up, I'm keen to hear opinions on
this.

Hey
good idea
yeah I worked on a gig where all the floating licenses
for the 3d software the studio was using came from
abroad via the net.
defiantly worth some investigation.

doesn't the new FLEXlm manager see multiple MAC

similar to RLM?
I use a USB dongle which doesn't show up as the first
nic in the list.
Nuke runs fine with it. This wasn't the case with the
former FLEXlm
servers...
Another option is to make the FLEXlm server available
on the web.
It runs like any other server (apache, ftp, etc) so it
should be accessible
from outside...

Hey all
I guess this is more of a support question but
I think I will start my research here.
Its come to that time that I should purchase a
personal copy / license for myself of nuke.
So my question is, I know you can get a
floating license but is there way this license
be on a USB key or (i do hate this word) dongle
so that I can use it on my home machine and
when travelling use it on my lappy or even
when am at a studio that does not have a copy
of nuke stick it in that box and use nuke.
I don't really want to carry around my lappy
and use it as a license server.
