Abstract
A method of licensing software to a particular instance of a virtual machine that is being run as part of an Active Directory domain. Since a virtual machine is a simulation of a physical machine, i.e. a computer, it can easily be cloned to produce an exact duplicate. This poses a problem when it is desired to license an instance of software for use only on a particular virtual machine. The technology disclosed allows for software to be licensed for execution only on a particular instance of a virtual machine that is being run as part of an Active Directory domain.
