The License Manager tool connects to license servers and displays information about the License Packs installed on the Server.

When the Application starts, it checks for a commandline argument and if so tries to connect to that server. If not it checks if a license server is running on the local machine and if so, displays the information about it. If there is no license server running on the local machine, it checks up the registry for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentcontrolSet\services\termservice\parameters\UseLicenseServer entry .If this is set to 1, it tries to connect to the server listed in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentcontrolSet\services\termservice\parameters\DefaultLicenseServer.If this succeeds the app displays information about this server. If None of the above conditions are met, it displays a dialog box where the user can enter a server name to connect to.
