Sharing my Hasp

[MichaelH]

My situation is as follows, I work from home, from an office in my garden. At present Mastercam 2017 is running local on my pc. I have a local network (WD ex2) in the house where I store my files. What I was wondering and hoping is that I can install Mastercam on my Mac book(bootcamp windows 10) and access the dongle over the local network by plugging the dongle in to the WD ex2 usb port. There are so many occasions when I get a call out of hours, to program something urgently and really don't want to have to fetch the dongle back and forth from the office. Bare in mind I do not want to or cannot run 2 copies of Mastercam simultaneously.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated.

There is a device called a USB Anywhere that should solve your problem

Install that on your network, then plug your hasp into it

Any machine on your network should be able to see the hasp and run Mastercam
