Communication between LF Server and Directory Server(License Manager)

asked on December 10, 2014


Hi there,

Is There anyone knows where can I find more information about this?

My infra manager is asking, what do we need to have this comunication, Do we need a AD or DNS , to work and to LF be able to see Directory Server?

We have a problem that we have a new site, were we created Laserfiche Server there, but LF Directory Server wont find LF server there, but i am able to ping the server!, those server from the new site are not in our AD. This new site needs to also be in our AD or Domain to see each other?

And it is also not able to workflow server find the LF server being in the same LAN.

Thanks for the information!

Best Regards

The LFDS machine name is set in each license file, so each licensed application needs to be able to resolve that name in order to periodically make an HTTP call back to it to verify that the license is still valid.

Yes, the server needs to be on the same domain or a trusted domain.

Can you please also clarify the ports required? According to this, TCP ports 5048, 5049, and 5051 are required to be open between the Laserfiche Server and the License Manager. Are these the same requirements for the 9.2 Directory Server?

Only 5048 and 5049 on LFDS/LM are relevant to the communication between LFS and LFDS. Laserfiche Directory service needs to behaves as the License Manager for backwards compatibility with older versions of Laserfiche software, so the same ports are used.

Port 5051 is only used for activity notifications from LFS to clients, like Workflow.
