wingate client is conflict with the FlexLM service?

[atang008]

My PowerPCB was losing its license after I'd installed the wingate client which I using to surf the internet.
I found that the wingate client is conflict with the FlexLM service which is use for PowerPCB license. When the

wingate client is enable, it will make the FlexLM service stop respond, PowerPCB fail to connect to the license

and cannot start.
Is't a bug of wingate?
My system: xp+sp1 wingate client 5.x

I don't have a WG Client PC in front of me right now - so I might be using the wrong terminology here. In the WGIC control panel, you can specify that applications should be let through directly, or should be controlled via WGIC. You can try to add the FlexLM / PowerPCB applications to the list of applications that are ignored by WGIC - this might resolve this for you.

I'd add the FlexLM/PowerPCB applications to the list of Applications, and set the type of access to Local Access. But the problem is still here. :(

'Kay. I'm going to have to see this application running in real life then. Do you have a handy link close-by that I can download an evaluation copy from, please ?

Then I'll give it a run through tomorrow to see if there is anything obvious that jumps out.

It’s ok now. There were 4 files I must add to the application list, and I need a new version FlexLM running.
Thanks for your help.

I have another problem. If I hibernate my XP, When I power on the next time, the wingate client seems to take a long time to reconnect to the internet. Is't a bug?

Great stuff on getting it to work. Glad that helped then. (PowerPCB is quite interesting, from the bit we saw here)

How long is a long time ? Is it 30 seconds / 5 minutes ? When you hibernate the machine again and restart it - can you go into the Start menu and use the WGIC toggle application to re-toggle the WinGate Internet Client. See if that makes a difference, and let me know, please.

It's about 3 minute.
If I use WGIC toggle I can reconnect to the internet immediatly.
