Displaying contact information
You can specify that custom contact information be displayed in the copyright statement that displays during the 14-day grace period and in warning messages that display when there is a problem with licensing or the expiration date for a license is approaching. Custom contact information will also display when you run lmu or lmu -b.
This feature is not available on systems running the licensing upgrade package (because it requires a version 11 or higher Synergy runtime). On Windows, you must do this on the license server (not a license client). |
You can specify up to 3 lines of 60 characters each, which can be loaded from a text file or (on Windows) typed into a field in SynConfig. In warning messages, the text you specify is preceded by the line “Please contact your Synergy supplier.” When running lmu or lmu -b, it is preceded by “Contact Info:”.
To specify contact information from the command line
Use the lmu -contact option and specify the path and filename of a text file that contains the contact information. If there is a space in the path or filename, enclose the entire path in quotation marks. For example,
lmu -contact "c:\my files\ContactInfo.txt"
See lmu utility for more information about lmu options.
