WIBU Network Server on mixed LAN

Problem:

In a heterogeneous (Windows PC and Macintosh) LAN environment, if the WIBU Network Server v3.30 is running on a Macintosh equipped with Mac OS X, the IP address of the server computer is recognized improperly by the WIBU Network Server software.
The WIBU log file reports an incorrect IP address (127.0.0.1). In this case the ArchiCAD clients on Mac OS X will fail to find the network dongle.

Workaround:
Open the:
System Preferences > Network > TCP/IP tab page > Built-in Ethernet tabpage
on the server and check the computer's IP address.

On the client computer, set the server's IP address in the System volume>Library>Frameworks>WkMacLibX.framework>WIBUKEY.INI file manually to this value.

[WkLAN Client section]

Server1= *

* means the Server IP address
