I know that with the advent of the XM products licensing took a big jump forward. It also allowed Bentley to host the licenses for those clients who choose to do so.

Thanks as always Phil.

&amp;nbsp;I'll get him to give it a try.

You should just need one line:

Great timing guys,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
It's A\H here so I don't have access to my usual Bentley Support contact. I have a guy who has set up the Gateway, but needs to run 2004. The activation was successful, but what do I have in the 2004 license file?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Thanks,

Jan is 100% correct and in fact we have between 6,500 and 7,300 SELECT Server gateways that connect to the hosted server daily.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I've even heard of a few companies that have installed the gateway on every laptop in order to provide a means of using PRE-XM applications on the road and not lose their ability to pool licenses.&amp;nbsp; The Gateway just like any other XM application was designed to work disconnected from its parent SELECT Server for up to 30 days.&amp;nbsp; Making it the perfect road warrior companion.
&lt;/p&gt;

Hi Jeff,
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
the licensing systems &amp;quot;pre-XM&amp;quot; and XM are not compatible, so V8 applications cannot connect to XM licensing server directly. The solution for your mixed environment with both XM/V8i and pre-XM applications is SELECTserver Gateway. This service communicates with XM-style licensing server (e.g. licensing server hosted at Bentley) and it transforms the licesnses to pre-XM style, so for older applications it looks like that a former SELECTserver is installed.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Usually SELECTserver Gateway is installed in an office, so XM/V8i applications connect directly to Bentley hosted SELECTserver via Internet and older applications connect to Gateway locally. If there are remote offices, that are not well-connected to a headquarter, just install Gateway in these offices too. In an exterme situation remote people can have Gateway installed on their machines, so in fact each has own pre-XM licensing server.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
HTH Jan
