Legitimizing your copy of the server software
Registration
Preliminaries
This note describes how to specify your customer number and access key in the configuration file.
The server software is licensed for use on one device. You must obtain an access key from Read Write Tools and specify it in the configuration file in order to use the software uninterrupted.
Configuration
The server
section must contain a registration
section with two entries: customer-number
and access-key
.
The customer-number
was provided to you when you purchased the software and again when you registered the software. If you have lost it, you can retrieve it automatically by providing Read Write Tools with the email address used during purchase or registration. Use the form provided at Lost Customer Number. Contact customer service for other situations.
The access-key
is specific to the device running the software. When you purchased the software an access-key was provided which is the value that needs to be added to the configuration.
