Hello,

Registration key seem's dont work with linux mandrake 8.2, after read the
forum and changed my shell to csh and domain/host to newhost.newdomain ( No
ethernet card ).

When i install sesi the teminal say:

—– SERVER newhost.newdomain ——–
SERVER newhost.newdomain 00000000
Current License Status:
—– SERVER newhost.newdomain ——–

*** WARNING *** - No valid server lines found

Please install licenses using the Houdini License Administrator
(hkey). Start hkey by first changing to the directory where
houdini is installed and then running:

source houdini_setup
hkey

License tools have now been installed.
#

After start sesinetd /var/log/sesinetd.log say:

07:31:27 09/21/02 sesid: server shutdown pid=3479
07:31:48 09/21/02 sesid: server start pid=3849 IP: 127.0.0.1
