An LM-X end user may see the following error when attempting to use an LM-X- protected license on a terminal server:

FATAL ERROR - Exploration License: LM-X Error:
[LOCAL] C:\MSRDS2.0_Cons\bin\karto.lic - Software not allowed to run on a terminal server client


This error occurs because the SHARE = TERMINALSERVER directive has not been included in the license file.

Setting the SHARE directive to TERMINALSERVER for a local (node-locked) license specifies that the
licensed application will work for remote terminal server clients. When TERMINALSERVER is not specified, remote
clients will be blocked, thereby preventing a local license from being shared for multiple users via a terminal
server.

Note that the TERMINALSERVER setting applies only to Windows and is ignored by Unix.
