For the Smoke for Mac OS X distribution of Burn, you use the same license server as the application. See the Autodesk Smoke for Mac OS X Installation and Licensing Guide for information.
The license server is a Linux daemon that provides concurrent licenses to Burn nodes.
You can install the license server on a Burn node in your network, or on any 64-bit system running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop 5.3 with Workstation Option (64-bit), Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS 4, Update 3 (64- bit), CentOS 5.3, or CentOS 4.3.
For a redundant network license server configuration, you must install the license server software on all three workstations selected as license servers.
To install the license server, as root, run on the ./INSTALL_LICSERV from the software installation directory.
