What was the last SW release which did not poll the license server?
What was the last SW release which did not poll the license server?
(OP)
I skipped from SW2005 to SW2009, and somewhere in between began the polling of the license server to assure that the license is valid and not being used more than once or installed more than twice. Does anyone remember what release that started with?

It was also when they implemented the 24 character Alpha Numeric first 16 remained the same and 8 chars mix of numbers and letters (NumericAlpha?) like A2CD 5EF8
Spoiler:
There are ways to trick out the registry but I'm not going to tell you how. One a customer of the VAR I worked for found/told me about when he was having trouble returning a borrowed license from a user on vacation.
