License Activation via Script
Every user needs a license. It is stored under %userprofile%/dabLink in the file License. After receiving the license-file you can just place the file unter the path %userprofile%/dabLink/License. After restarting dabLink the license will be directed automatically.
Here you can find a PS-Script to give every User on the terminal server the same license (Remove the -WhatIf, to deactivate the testrun):
ForEach($userProfileFolder in (Get-Item -Path 'C:\users\*')) {
$dabLinkFolderPath = $userProfileFolder.FullName + '\dabLink\'
If(!(test-path $dabLinkFolderPath))
{
Write-Host 'Create Folder' $dabLinkFolderPath
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $dabLinkFolderPath -WhatIf
}
$licenseFilePath = $dabLinkFolderPath + 'License'
Write-Host 'Copy license ' $licenseFilePath
Copy-Item -Path 'C:\Users\awyrobek\Desktop\License' -Destination $licenseFilePath -Force -WhatIf
Write-Host '----------'
}The script only makes sense, if you have a company-license (restricted on the windows domainname)
