Generating and Copying the Password File

Open the WlmAdmin utility.
Under the Tools menu, select Generate Revocation Password.

Please note that the option will not be available for use if sntlpasswdgenutil.dll is not present in the same directory as WlmAdmin. Contact your software developer/vendor if this file is not provided.

Specify a password—consisting of 8 to 32 alpha-numeric characters—in Enter Password.

Tip:

You must write-down the password somewhere, as the same will be needed for setting up the license server for revocation. In case you forget the password, repeat the steps mentioned above.

Click Generate. A dialog box appears prompting you to save the sntlpassword.dat file. By default, it will be saved the following location:
On Windows Vista and Server 2008: <OSdrive>:\Users\XXX\Documents\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel RMS Development Kit\Tools\
On Windows 2000, XP, and Server 2003: <OSdrive>:\Documents and Settings\XXX\My Documents\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel RMS Development Kit\Tools\

Click Save. A confirmation message appears.
Copy the file you generated in step 5 to the license server's current directory. The default path for Windows NT-based systems is: <OS Drive>:\Program Files\Common Files\SafeNet Sentinel\Sentinel RMS Development Kit Server\WinNT).
You may now revoke licenses using the steps described here.
