Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 User Privileges

Any user who has administrator privileges may start the license server and may also configure the license server (e.g., turn token borrowing on and off, change token distribution, turn logging on and off, and add or delete a redundant license server) regardless of who started it. Any user with administrator privileges can also use lsrvdown to shut down the license server unless the license server was started by a user with the user name “Administrator,” in which case only “Administrator” can use lsrvdown to shut it down.

Before allowing these actions, Sentinel RMS Development Kit not only checks that the user has administrator privileges or is the “Administrator,” but also makes sure that the user is in the same network domain as the license server.
