$ KCAP /LICENSE

   When you put a new version of a licensed NDC product on your system,
   you will be allowed to demo it for a period of time, after which the
   product will only continue to work if you are under support or make
   arrangements with NDC for an extension of the demo. (If you received
   the product through an NDC distributor then they will be able to help
   you with licensing.)

   The KCAP/LICENSE command is used when communicating with NDC
   concerning your license. NDC can give out license keys to extend
   demos or record support arrangements.

   The KCAP/LICENSE command gives you a license key which you pass on
   to NDC. NDC then gives you back a responding key which you enter,
   updating the NDC license database on your system for the product.

   The LMF$KEYCAPTURE.LDB file in KCAP$LOCATION should not be deleted from
   your system. If it is, then you will need to get a license key from NDC
   in order to continue to use the product.

   If you change the KCAP$LOCATION directory on your system, then in
   order to continue to use the product, you will also need to rename
   the LMF$KEYCAPTURE.LDB file into the new directory. (If you are not
   demoing, then you may alternately copy the file to the new directory,
   instead of renaming it there.)

   You must have SYSPRV as an authorized privilege to use the license
   command.

   The license command first asks you to enter your exact company name.

   The company name should be entered as you want it to display in the
   license message which goes to the terminal when running the product.
   The name, including all spacing and punctuation, must be communicated
   to NDC exactly or the license key will not be accepted. Once a company
   name has been exchanged with NDC, the company name cannot thereafter
   be changed without first consulting with NDC.

   After entering the company name, you will be given a license key to
   transmit to NDC. It should be communicated exactly, including the
   encoding-type, nodename, etc, as directed on the license screen.

   If you are not communicating the license key to NDC immediately,
   then you can exit the license screen by entering a Ctrl-Z at the
   prompt. You may, alternately, create the file KEY.LIS, containing
   the necessary licensing information for NDC, by pressing the PF4 key,
   instead of Ctrl-Z.

   When you receive a responding key from NDC, you should re-enter the
   company name exactly as before (if you have exited from the license
   screen meanwhile). Then enter the responding key, exactly as given
   by NDC. You will get a key-accepted message if all goes well.

   If there has been any miscommunication of the company name, license
   key or encoding type, or the responding key, then you will get an
   error message and will have to try again.
