I want to know may I just use 1 license to install 2 TwonkyMedia Servers in my home networking environment? These 2 server will be connected with ethernet or wlan.
Thanks.
May I use one license to install 2 TwonkyMedia Servers?
Re: May I use one license to install 2 TwonkyMedia Servers?
AFAIK this is not allowed by license regulations.
Furthermore it will plain not work once the two server are in the same network and "see" each other.

I thought you could you the same license key for up to 3 PCs/devices.

Here is the scoop:
Our licensing is tied to a Mac addresses. If you have a laptop, that consumes two Mac addresses whether wireless is enabled or not. A desktop or NAS consumes a single Mac address.
TMS 4.x works on up to 2 Mac addresses
TMS 5.x works on up to 3 Mac addresses
TMS 4.x works on up to 3 Mac addresses

Will binding a server to a single NIC free up a licence?

If I want to upgrade my machine to a new one with higher performance, and the old machine will not run in my home network again, may I continue to use the original license?

No problem. Our license system allows the last 3 Mac addresses to work. That way if you buy a new PC, or your hard disk crashes, you can use your existing license key on the new PC and it should still work. If it doesn't, just contact support http://www.twonkymedia.com/ContactUs.aspx and select Accouning Issues from the dropdown menu and we'll fix things for you.qjb wrote:If I want to upgrade my machine to a new one with higher performance, and the old machine will not run in my home network again, may I continue to use the original license?
