Server installation

Run RLM as an executable​

First you have to download RLM server (RLM.zip) and unzip it on the computer you want to use as a license server.

This version runs on Windows but we can compile the server for other plateforms on demand.

You then need to place your license file in the RLM\lic_serverX64 folder and start rlm.exe.

Run RLM as a service​

Instead of running the rlm.exe each time you wish to use our programs, you can create a service that will be launched everytime your host computer starts up.

Open cmd.exe (or powershell.exe) as an administrator and set the directory to: [Your Path]\RLM\lic_serverX64
Then execute the command:

rlm.exe -install_service -service_name RLMserver -dlog [RLM_server_directory]\rlm.log

Now, open the Task Manager and go to the Services tab. You will find your RLMserver service with the status "Stopped". Right click on it and start the service.

Manage RLM ports​

The RLM server needs two ports:

  • a port to enable connexion between the clients (SkyReal) and the RLM server (default 5053),
  • a port for the validation of the licenses, which is random by default.

It is possible to customize these ports editing the license file like this:

HOST localhost disksn=123456789 [your connexion port]
ISV skydea port=[your fix validation port]
LICENSE skydea skyreal_full 1.0 22-mar-2020 10 disable=VM

(…)

Once saved, you can restart RLM.
