When i install the product (No other Houdini versions installed)
Setup has by default like this:
Should i un-check the commercial License Server?
I did buyy Indie version (NODE LOCKED

Moin, anonymous,

> Should i un-check the commercial License Server?

no, because “Indie” is a commercial license (which is clearly stated by the EULA, which you probably read).

> What for are those HQueue Client and Server?

Have you tried the docs?
http://www.sidefx.com/ja/docs/houdini/ref/hqueue [sidefx.com] (tldr: Render management).

As for your other issue (second thread): If you are on Windows, try running the License Tool as Administrator to install your licenses. If automatic installation does not work, try a manual installation, download a license file from http://license.sidefx.com/login.php, [license.sidefx.com] save it to your HD, open it, copy the content to your clipboard and paste that into the License Tool “Enter license manually” input field.

Out of here. Being called a dick after having supported Houdini users for years is over my paygrade.
I will work for money, but NOT for "you have to provide people with free products" Indie-artists.
Good bye.

Have you tried resetting your password?

Obviously something with your login credentials isn't working.
