According to Official Docker Documentation the MAINTAINER instruction is deprecated. Instead, one should use the LABEL instruction to define the author of the generated images. The LABEL instruction is more flexible, enables setting metadata, and can be easily viewed with the command docker inspect.

WARN[0001] maintainer is deprecated, skipping

Thanks for this amazing package! Great work! I'm using it on a Synology NAS, so one less computer to run!

I've spent some time till it finally worked, here are some information I'd like to share:

1. The user either needs to rename it's license file to mayaserver.lic, or needs to mount it via:

-v path/mylicense.lic:/var/flexlm/mayaserver.lic

or specify -c /var/flexlm/mylicense.lic at the end. Figuring this out took me quite a while.

2. The user might prefer to have logging going into Docker logs. Then he needs to remove -l, which I without the -l option.

Hello,
Slightly unrelated question but I thought I would ask since you seem to have experience with Autodesk softwares. Do you know if it is possible to run MotionBuilder or Maya in Docker containers?
Thank you

I am thinking about using your image to deploy several autodesk license server.
Why is it necessary to expose all Ports (27000 - 27009) to one container? Normally the server will just need one of these ports. This would allow, that i bind different containers to different public ports and then i can run several license servers on one host. Is this possible?

In an effort to remove unnecessary references to slavery and replace them with more inclusive terms.

I'm trying to run this container with the command in the readme.
I did add an backlslash after the image name.

docker run -d --mac-address=<license-mac-address> \
-h <license-hostname> \
-v <local-license-path>:/var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic:ro \
-p 2080:2080 -p 27000-27009:27000-27009 \
haysclark/adlmflexnetserver \
-c /var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic

This runs but exits immediately. Isn't the -z option supposed to prevent this.
I don't seem to get any logs or errors do you have any idea what is happening here?

I started my container with following command:
docker run -d --mac-address="00:19:99:XX:XX:XX"
-h hostname
--name autodesktest
-v /opt/autodesk-testserver/license.lic:/var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic:ro
-p 2080:2080 -p 27000-27009:27000-27009
haysclark/adlmflexnetserver
-c /var/flexlm/adsk_server.lic

but when i start a program and a license is obtained from this server i cannot see anything in the logs. Also there is no logging when i borrow licenses.

Hi,

I have a *.dat file and runned like:

docker run -d --mac-address=AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF \
  -h localhost \
  -v /home/user/AABBCCDDEEFF_0000000000XXXX_0000_Y.DAT:/var/flexlm/AABBCCDDEEFF_0000000000XXXX_0000_Y.DAT:ro \
  -p 2080:2080 -p 27000-27009:27000-27009 \
  haysclark/adlmflexnetserver -c /var/flexlm/AABBCCDDEEFF_0000000000XXXX_0000_Y.DAT
