GPSeismic Security Key Capabilities

Network Compatibility
  
  The security keys we now use are network compatible. This implies that a user 
  is not required to have the security attached to his computer and can access a 
  key (license) across a local network and even via terminal services. Please note 
  however that each security key tracks its use and ensures that only one user can 
  access it at a time. So, multiple users can access the same security key the only 
  restriction is that one user must finish using GPSeismic with the key before 
  another will be granted access to it. 
  
  Each key has a hard limit of one license; however, we do have clients with 
  multiple licenses (keys) who place all of their keys on a single server. Their 
  office staff with local IPs and remote staff via terminal services regularly 
  access licenses (as long as one is available) from the server.
  
  1) For local users where the key is connected directly to the workstation or 
  where the key is accessed from a server via a local area network, each license 
  (key) allows multiple instances of any combination of the GPSeismic applications 
  for the same user. Regardless of which applications are running, this user would 
  consume one license. 
  
  2) For remote users via terminal services, a single instance of any GPSeismic 
  application will consume one license (key). 
  
  Software Installation
  
  Note that GPSeismic does not need to be installed on the server. The software 
  that must be installed on the server is the security key driver and server 
  software. This installer is available as a single executable which can be 
  downloaded from our FTP site. 
  
  Download and run the sole file in this folder on the server. Once this is 
  complete, you can then attach as many GPSeismic USB security keys to the server 
  as you like. Then on each workstation which has GPSeismic installed, you will 
  need to modify a small XML file in the GPSeismic installation folder (typically 
  C:\Program Files\GPSeismic) called sntlconfig.xml. In this file, between the 
  ContactServer tags you will need to replace localhost with the local IP address 
  of your server. This will tell that installation of GPSeismic to look for a key 
  (license) on the system with the entered IP address.
