This update adds the possibility of anonymizing user and host for license data at the collection time. By updating anonymize()="" { username()="" { field(String)="username"{} method(String)="none"{} } hostname()="" { field(String)="hostname"{} method(String)="none"{} } } and changing method to either "clear" or "hash", real user and/or host names will be removed from license data. The "clear" metohd will set all names to "_clear_" while using "hash" will set names to the internal hash value for the names. This will allow you to se the usage patterns tough names will no longer be identifiable.
Added support for newly discovered format on output from i4blt -s -lc (slightly different from previously known output format).
When licpoll encountered FLEXlm license files with UPGRADE lines without matching FEATURE/INCREMENT lines it would exit. This update fixes this problem.
Some FLEXlm lmstat output contains entry lines without the feature version information. This patch updates clients with a new licpoll binary that handles these lines correctly.
When lmstat output mixed the case of feature names in different lines, licpoll got confused and could go into an infinitie loop. This patch solves this problem.
Licpoll now handles display values from lmutil which contain "garbage" Licpoll can now handle licenses locked to "disk serial number" Licpoll also adds PID to debug filename to avoid having several processes write to the same debug file.
Licpoll did not handle host-locked licenses properly. This fix includes an updated licpoll that handles this correctly.
Licpoll poll crashed before finishing log files leaving unfinished .make files. Error was triggered by (too) large number of in/out records. This patch corrects this problem
