[0058] figure 1 A system configuration according to the first embodiment of the present invention is shown. This is an example of a network connecting a plurality of subnets using Ethernet through a router.

[0059] exist figure 1 In this example, LAN (Local Area Network) 1 as the first subnet is connected to LAN2 as the second subnet via router 115 . In this LAN1, as a first license management server, an operation device 107 composed of a keyboard and the like, a recording medium 111 composed of a hard disk drive and the like, and a display composed of a CRT (cathode ray tube) and the like (not shown) are included. The license management main server (LMS) 103 of the license management server (LMS) 103 is connected with an operating device 108 composed of a keyboard and the like, a recording medium 112 composed of a hard disk drive and the like, and a CRT (cathode ray tube) and the like (not shown) through a transmission medium 101 The display's license management slave ser...

[0141] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The constitution of the first embodiment of the present invention prevents the network terminal from using the application software when the number of network terminals simultaneously operating under the same basic software set is equal to the number of licenses. In the second embodiment, license management of the basic software set is implemented by limiting the execution of the basic software to the license number.

[0142] In the second embodiment, its hardware configuration is the same as figure 1 Same as shown. Network terminals 116a to 116n and 117a to 117n have such Figures 2 to 4 The same composition as shown in . The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the license management functions of the network terminals 116a to 116n and 117a to 117n and the servers 103 to 106 . In detail, the network terminals 116a to 116n and 117a to 117n execute as Figure ...

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a network from being used by an illegal copy or the like while keeping convenience and to improve its availability. SOLUTION: The maximum number of reference software usable for network terminal units 116a to 116n, 117a to 117n is initialized in a server 103, and the number of remaining licenses usable of the reference software furthermore at present is stored in servers 103 to 106 in common. When any one of the terminal units 116a to 116n, 117a to 117n is started to be driven, the number of remaining licenses of the server corresponding to the terminal unit starting its operation is reduced and the number of remaining licenses is transmitted to the other servers, so that the numbers of remaining licenses stored in respective servers 103 to 106 are equally reduced and the number of licenses can be managed by the whole network.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer network. More specifically, the present invention relates to a computer network connected with one or more servers and a plurality of network terminals for remotely running application software stored in the servers, a network used in the above-mentioned network Terminal, a license management server used in the above-mentioned network for managing licenses of basic software sets used in the network terminals, a method and storage for license management of basic software sets used in the network terminals A recording medium that allows a computer to execute the program of the license management method. Background technique [0002] A network computer connected with a server and a network terminal such as a dumb terminal, WBT (Window Based Terminal), and NC (Network Computer) has been in general use. In such a network, network terminals work under the control of a basic software set downloaded from the server...
