In my youth I realised that a licensed package was calling a separate executable to check the license - the return code determined if the product was licensed. I replaced the license code with a shell script that returned '1' and it all worked. Simple, naive days. P. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I've used the tools associated with it to analyse FlexLM logs. However looking at it, it now seems to be a commercial enterprise.

It's not really clear (to me, anyway) what you're asking for. What would the application you're looking for *do*? Are you looking for something like flexlm? Are you licensing your python application on a per-seat basis? I'm looking for some software like flexlm, which has the function like floating license. My python app will be installed in several PCs in local network, and I want to manage which python app can be used. So I need one license manager to control the usage of python app. One python app will be installed in one PC.

I know flexlm but I never heard of an open source project with the same functionality.
