Seagull License Server
Who Needs Seagull License Server?
Seagull License Server is a software tool for monitoring and enforcing the
maximum allowable number of printers used. It is a required component of a purchased
Enterprise installation of BarTender. It is not supported or needed if you are
using BarTender in the 30-day trial mode, or have purchased a Basic or
Professional edition.
If you purchase the Enterprise Edition, Seagull License Server will be included
on the product CD. You only need to download it from here if there is an update
you need or if you wish to install before you receive your CD.
Summary of Operation
Seagull License Server runs unattended on any computer on the LAN and will
monitor BarTender clients over a LAN in order to keep track of the total number
of printers being used.
On Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows 2003, or Windows XP computers, Seagull
License Server can be configured to operate as a Windows service that runs
whenever your computer is on, whether or not anyone is actually logged into the
computer.
Installing Seagull License Server
If you have the Enterprise Edition of BarTender, install the Seagull License
Server before installing BarTender. Seagull License Server runs unattended and
invisibly on any computer on your network. You may install it on a computer
that will also run BarTender. Seagull License Server interacts with BarTender
seamlessly so that BarTender users need not even know that it is running.
