Running Indigo on 2 machines non-simultaneously

Post by afecelis » Thu Dec 24, 2015 2:34 am

Hi guys,

This would be a request, a simple one. As with many other programs that need online authorization/verification, Indigo should be allowed to be run/authorized on up to 2 machines used non simultaneously. People usually have a desktop and a laptop machine or a home and an office environment to work so it would be great to be able to work with Indigo full. When doing network render, if the other authorized machine is going to participate, it should only be allowed in slave mode.

Many programs allow the installation on 2 computers (some even on up to 3), I hope Indigo would too, someday :D

regards,

Alvaro

Yeah, and a MAC address:
Indigo manual, page 17 wrote:The licence for your computer is based on the CPU model of your processor and MAC address of your network card. You should avoid changing your network card regularly when using Indigo – for example avoid enabling and disabling your network card, as this may confuse the licensing software that Indigo uses.
