How to Obtain a License File
Before you install SAMreport-Lite, you must obtain a license file.
SAMreport-Lite runs on any computer, but it can read only the report logs
from the license server(s) where you obtain a license file. You will be asked
for the location of this file during installation.
To obtain a license file
