Overview

Node-Locked and Unlocked licenses are typically issued for small scale deployments of Syndeia (clients). 
Node-locked licenses are issued for individual users and are tied to the MAC address of their machines.
Unlocked licenses are not locked to any MAC address but are typically issued only during an evaluation phase with a time-limited expiration date.  

License Setup

Copy the .lic Syndeia license file that you obtained from us to the .syndeia folder in your user/home directory.  If you do not have a .syndeia folder, create it.

• On Windows 10, this would be %UserProfile%\.syndeia , ex:  C:\Users\Administrator\.syndeia
• On *NIX (Mac OS X, Linux, etc.), this would be ~/.syndeia, ex: /Users/John/.syndeia (on Mac OSX) or /home/john/.syndeia (on Linux)

  If you have problems creating the .syndeia folder using Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac), you can create it in your home directory via the command mkdir .syndeia using the CMD.EXE (Windows) or Terminal.app (Mac)

  Important:  Make sure you do not have any other .lic files present in your .syndeia folder of if you do, you have "disabled" them by (for ex) suffixing .disabled to them.  Not doing so will cause licensing issues during client startup!
