Appendix D – Optional Hostid Installation Instructions
Certain hostids in the RLMID family (RLMID1) require device-specific installation on the target computer. These instructions must be passed on to your customer’s license administrator in order for them to use the device. The RLMid1 device is a hardware key manufactured by SafeNet, Inc.
Installing RLMid1 Devices on Windows
Installation on a target system can be accomplished in two ways:
Windows automatic installation, OR
Use the RLMID1 driver installer (from the Reprise Software website) to do the driver installation.

Installing RLMid1 Devices on Linux
To install the necessary drivers for RLMid1 devices on Linux, you will need the Sentinel HASP/LDK Runtime Installer for Linux. At the time of writing this, instructions can be found here:
The runtime installer sets up a daemon that is used to access the hardware key.
