Quick FLEXlm questions

[QuakeGamer]

1) About HOSTID=ID=...
FlexLM Accepts:

HOSTID=ANY
HOSTID=DEMO
HOSTID=COMPOSITE=composit_hostid
HOSTID=DISPLAY=display
HOSTID=HOSTNAME=host
HOSTID=ID=n
HOSTID=INTERNET=###.###.###.###
HOSTID=USER=user

Many targets do not accept HOSTID=ANY anymore. So HOSTID=ID=number is a good way to have a license, not beeing locked to a single System.

2) About the ck= thingie.

This is a Standard FlexLM Feature (nothing vendor defined). You can check the ck with lmcksum.

3)

"What is the difference between the PACKAGE and the INCREMENT part? Couldn't someone just put the INCREMENT entries in the PACKAGE part and would only need one signature instead of two?"

If a duplicate feature is found, FEATURE just overwrites the old one. INCREMENT increments the licenses for the Feature. Correct me, if i'm wrong there.
