network hasp not recognized

[jcr723]

Hi,

I'm a teacher using Mastercam X5 over a network. Last year all my PC's connected with the red USB hasp with no problem. I tried to launch Mastercam X5 for the first time in 6 months and find that it can't find the network hasp. Tried many things: restart server, move hasp to different USB port, Stop/Start the HASP services on server. Nothing is working. (I know of the need to launch NHASP and set SIM type to NetHASP and Mode to Network.

 

Previous threads on the subject not helpful. Don't see why things would stop working. Configuration is exactly the same as it was last year.

 

Any suggestions appreciated.

Turns out the network hasp will be recognized if the windows 7 firewall is turned off

[gcode]

there was a Windows update that killed hasps last year.

I think they have new drivers available on the Mastercam support page.
