Step by Step Instructions
1) Install Autodesk Application – Do Not Start it yet
2) Install the Autodesk network license manager (v11.18.0) from crack folder (nlm11.18.0.0_ipv4_ipv6_win64.msi)
-Default install is “C:\Autodesk\Network License Manager”
-Stop any running instance (lmgrd, adskflex) if you have one
-Replace adskflex.exe by cracked one
3) Stop Autodesk Desktop Licensing Service (use services.msc)
-Replace C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\AdskLicensing\11.0.0.4854\AdskLicensingService\AdskLicensingService.exe by cracked one
-Replace C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\AdskLicensing\11.0.0.4854\AdskLicensingAgent\AdskLicensingAgent.exe by cracked one
-Replace C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\AdskLicensing\11.0.0.4854\AdskLicensingAgent\adlmint.dll by cracked one
-Start Autodesk Desktop Licensing Service (use services.msc)
To be safe, reboot machine or kill all adesk license instances if you already ran some Autodesk apps
4) Edit lic.dat and change HOSTNAME and MAC to suit your configuration (if you are not sure start LMTOOLS Utility and go to
System Settings, your HOSTNAME and MAC will be listed)
You can change vendor port too and add your previous licenses of course 🙂
Save lic.dat where you want (we suggest to “C:\Autodesk\Network License Manager” folder)
5 & 6) You have 2 options:
1) Start Network License Manager manually :
Run the license manager with “lmgrd.exe -z -c lic.dat” from “C:\Autodesk\Network License Manager” folder
Or
2) Create a Service: (suggested)
Start LMTOOLS Utility (lmtools.exe GUI) from “C:\Autodesk\Network License Manager” folder
- in ‘config services’, add a “Autodesk’ service name
choose C:\Autodesk\Network License Manager\lmgrd.exe for path to lmgrd
choose X:\path\where\you\saved\lic.dat for path to license file
choose a empty file to have debug logs (optional)
tick ‘start server at power up’ and ‘use services’
Click Save - in ‘service/license file’ choose configuration using services and tick ‘ignore license file path env var” (dont click that if you
you wanna use a ditributed licensing .. or you will have to edit or create a Licpath.lic file) - in ‘start/stop/read’ click ‘start server’
click ‘rereadlicense file’ - in ‘server status’ click ‘perform status enquiry’
check that you have ‘adskflex: UP v11.18.0’
check features are activated : Users of 87545ACD_2022_0F: (Total of 100 licenses issued; Total of 0 licenses in use) for example - in ‘server diags’ check all featured can be checked out
- check logs also win ‘config services’ if you configured it
7) Start Your Autodesk Application
- When prompted select “Use a network license”
- Select “Single license server”
- Use 127.0.0.1, localhost or where the flexlm daemon is installed (syntax could be port@server).
You Could also set a distributed license system, having one machine serving them all
For that matter
you need to Set the ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE environment variable on the client machine (the procedure varies depending on the operating system).
To set the environment variable
Use the procedure described for your operating system to set the environment variable:
For Windows 7/8/10:
Right-click Computer and click Properties, or, in the Control Panel select System and Maintenance > System
Click Advanced system settings and select the Advanced tab.
Click Environment Variables.
In the Environment Variables dialog box, under System Variables, click New.
In the New System Variable dialog box, enter ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE in the Variable Name field.
In the Variable Value field, enter an at sign (@) followed by the host name of each license server to which you want to point the client. Separate each server name with a semicolon (;). For example:
@server1;@server2;@server3
Dont forget to open your firewall, you may also need to check the LICPATH.LIC file in root of the installed application in case you have issues
If you still want to use 2018-19-20-21 applications, simply add their features with the corrected signature into our new lic.dat license file.
Note: If anyone unable to activate by above procedure, then follow below
Dear all,
I solved the error of Licencing Error; Network licence not available.
This is because of licence file not complete. The provided licence file contains rare important softwares from Autodesk.
Do this to add your software in licence file and use the software unlimited.
What ever the software you want to use; Copy the flexnet feature codes till “OF”
Eg: For Autodesk 3ds Max 2022 The feature code is: 875683DSMAX_2022_0F
link for feature codes; https://knowledge.autodesk.com/customer-service/network-license-administration/managing-network-licenses/interpreting-your-license-file/feature-codes/2022-flexnet-feature-codes
Copy your software code from above link and paste it in the licence file after “FEATURE”
So the code will be,

Hi Mr. Ivan,
I am explaining below how to solve it. I did it
Same problem for revit and robot structural analysis
My problem is for Robot structural analysis. I am trying to install it but I have this license problem
Revit and Robot structural analysis are not getting activated as there are no feature for these products in licence file. Hence both apps are unable to locate licence file. Please reply as soon as possible.
Can someone please post a new license file that has Revit as a feature?
Visit civilmdc.com

Hello again. I could already fix it. In case someone has the same problem, I will leave how I did it. When I went to copy the MAC of LMTOOLS System Settings, there I would see two sequences of letters and numbers between quotes. It only worked for me when I deleted the second sequence, the space between them and the quotes, that is, just leave the first part.
Greetings
After LMTOOLS by Flex era > stop/stop/Reread > start server..
server is not starting it is coming as ” VD is starting, please check vendor daemon’s status in debug log”
so please inform what to do

Hello
I have successfully installed the software and was able to access and run the program for two or three times after I restarted my PC…
But now it give the following error:
Network License Not Available
Common causes: all licenses are in use, the server is down, or the license has expired. Contact your system administrator or support.
Error [-15.570.0]
You have to follow step by step activation in the video again…
hello, can you update the video link ? i cant open it, thank you
Use Google Chrome or Firefox,
“Network License Not Available

Error [0.0.]”
How do I fix it? I tried the solution in the comments for this error and it did not work.
Link updated, please check
Mine is similar but not the same as everybody. I completed all step by step from video, everything was fine till the end. When I started the Autodest program, the mitigation thing never showed up. Just open normally the program but the License Error showed saying:
“The license manager is not functioning or is improperly installed. AutoCAD will shut down now.
ADLSK_STATUS_AUTO_PENDING
22:Retry Limit exceeded connecting to the Service
Yes you have to follow the steps carefully
If you have installed Revit 2022 with the License Manager with the crack here, and it working. Can you just add the feature code to the license file for Advanced Steel for it to work, or do you need to set up the distributed license system as indicated at the end of the install text file?
I made the last post without checking the lic.dat file first-Sorry- Advanced Steel Feature code is there.
So really what I am asking is for Advanced Steel to work, do you need to set up the distributed license system as indicated at the end of the install text file?
Or can you just install the program, run it, and just click use network license and point to the server I am already using for Revit?
yep you can….
Hello,
after inputting all the data strictly following the steps of the “install.txt file” in the video published above, I get the error message [-8.544.0]. Can you give me some precious help?
Thanks in advance
Sorry, in the last post above I forgot to mention that my OS is windows 10 and that I was trying to install Revit 2022. All the information I got on ‘server status’ and ‘server diags’ of LMtools is fine, without any errors.

my opinion for the version of 3dsmax 2022.03 the system does not work … despite having followed the instructions of the video and the file.txt it continues to give the error message of the license [-8.544.0]. I noticed that in the “AdskKLicensing” folder the version 2022.03 creates another folder different from 11.0.0.4854 which is called 11.1.0.5629 and if you copy the three files “AdskKLicensingAgent.exe AdskKLicensingService.exe and adlmint.dll”, the 3dsmax program does not it does not even start but from a series of errors due to lack of files.
someone can give an explanation? sorry for my bad english
It really took a long time to figure out how to do all the steps. but finally did it. Thank you very much all the info.
If someone has problems with the final step with license error, i will tell you how i did it.
After licence error, delete lic.dat.
Stop server Autocad, delete Autocad service within lmtools.
Add FEATURE lines as explained in this page. I COPIED the text line after” _OF” from the same text from the lic.dat. Not from this page. Do not forget ” in the end. when you search FEASTURE CODE in autodesk websitre, use “AUTODESK –“. For example, AUTODESK AUTOCAD or AUTODESK REVIT etc
Follow the step 5 again from this page.
despite having checked all the steps of the installation without any errors, I still get the message error[-8,544,0], entering in the ‘server name’ either the key 127.0.0.1 or the localhost. It’s desperate, I can’t understand why

Hello LEARN,
Thanks for your suggestion, but the problem persists. It is possibly a conflict whose resolution is much more complex and I do not know how to overcome it.
Hello
“VD is starting, please check vendor daemon’s status in debug log” it is written after clicking on start server . not being successful start server. plz help me !
Hello, I hope you are fine and I am grateful. I’ll purchase the original product when I can afford it. I’m learning this software and its trial version expires in 30 days. Thank you for being a help. Highly appreciated 🙂 I can now learn it at my slow pace.
Cheers!

Hello. I did everything according to the instructions, it starts without problems on the same PC, but the autocad does not start on another PC when I specify the license server on the network. I checked, the ports are open, it is clear that the license server finds it, but writes that the network license is unavailable because all licenses are in use or the license has expired.
For a PC on the network, I had to make the points below, after which autocad saw the license, is it possible to do without replacing files on the client machine?
3) Stop Autodesk Desktop Licensing Service (use services.msc)
-Replace C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\AdskLicensing\11.0.0.4854\AdskLicensingService\AdskLicensingService.exe by cracked one

Hey Folks,
Just sharing my experience for resolving the network license issue for error code (-8.544.0).
On step 3, inside the AdskLicensing folder there is a ‘version’ file. Open this file with notepad and check what version value its on. On my system it was 12.0.1.5 possibly because I’ve used a newer revit installer to install the program. If you do then there should be a folder named with the exact version number. So instead of copying to folder 11.0.0.4854 (as per the guide) you copy to folder 12.0.1.5 (or whatever version number folder you have). What I did though is still follow the tutorial and replacing the contents of folder 11.0.0.4854 then copy all the contents of that folder and overwrite all the contents of folder 12.0.1.5.
After that you just carry on and follow the remaining steps.
This works for installing Revit 2022 on my computer.
Hope this proves helpful to anyone.
This definitely worked! It makes sense suddenly i have a new folder in the AdskLicensing (12.1.0.7121). Just a reminder, you need to stop Autodesk Licensing Services before copying all the items from 11..0.4854 because it will not all paste since it is currently running. Thanks Brian.
Thanks for your help
