Re: JWalk Config question

[Pete Helgren <Pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

There are no errors.  JWalk runs fine on the old 270 we just need to run 
the apps on the new 520 and leave the license manager on the 270. At 
least, based on your information, that should work.

Let me see what information  I can get from the customer and I'll get 
back to you.

Many thanks,

Pete
