first thing, for install the entire product bundle, u need to have 2k/NT
win98 users can only Install the Orcad suite with speCCtra autorouter
Open our lic.dat and update the field serverhostname with your hostname,
also don't forget to add/udate you LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable, put 27000@serverhostname
inside
When these preliminary steps accomplished u can launch setup.exe from the cd1,
select network install and then "License Manager Install" and give our lic.dat (with serverhostname field updated)
to it
Just ignore the "parsing license files" error.
make sure your cadence license server is working, and then Install the products
when prompted abou where to get license data tell to installer that port is 27000,
and server hostname is your pc hostname
Select the products you need.
NOTE: win98 users, for have the suite working under win98, each time before using the software
u will have to launch "Cadence Network Server" from the start menu otherwise software will
just won't work
