Registering a PC NetLink License

When you purchase PC NetLink, you receive a product registration number. Product registration numbers consist of twelve alphanumeric characters, for example, B7291203F811. While you can install PC NetLink with a temporary evaluation license, you will eventually have to enter the product registration number. We recommend that you register the product before the evaluation license expires. Failing to register the product before the expiration of the temporary evaluation license will cause PC NetLink to display a message stating it cannot start the server and point you to consult the event log.

Before you register your PC NetLink server software, you can verify whether it has been registered or not by using the registration command.

How to Verify if PC NetLink Has Been Registered

  1. Open a terminal window on the server where PC NetLink server software has been installed.

  2. Become superuser by typing the command su and entering the superuser password when prompted.

  3. At the superuser system prompt, type the following command: 

    /opt/lanman/sbin/registration -r

    If the product is still using the temporary evaluation license, the system response will display a line indicating when the license will expire. In this case you will need to register the product.

    If the product has been registered, the system response will indicate the product ID and product registration number.

How to Register a PC NetLink License

  1. Open a terminal window on the server where PC NetLink server software has been installed.

  2. Become superuser by typing the command su and entering the superuser password when prompted.

  3. At the superuser system prompt, type the following command: 

    /opt/lanman/sbin/registration -a product_registration

    where product_registration is the registration number you received.

No system reboot is required. If you registered PC NetLink before the expiration of the evaluation license, you do not need to restart the PC NetLink server. If you registered PC NetLink after the expiration of the evaluation license you will need to restart the PC NetLink server.

How to Start and Restart the PC NetLink Server

  1. Open a terminal window on the server where PC NetLink server software has been installed.

  2. Become superuser by typing the command su and entering the superuser password when prompted.

  3. At the superuser system prompt, type the command: 

    /opt/lanman/bin/net start server

How to Read the Event Log

  1. Open a terminal window on the server where PC NetLink server software has been installed.

  2. At the superuser system prompt, type the following command: 

    elfread --d system | page

    where --d is the option to display details, system is the name of the event log, and page displays the details one screen at a time.

Alternatively, you can use the SunLink Server Manager to read the event log, but you cannot run the Event Viewer from a Windows client.
