This document describes installation of the Run-time Environment v.2.0 for Sentinel LDK and Sentinel HASP, using RPM under the supported SUSE or RedHat operating systems. ("Sentinel LDK" is the next generation of the Sentinel HASP system.)
The following topics are discussed:Sentinel Admin Control Center user interface and help files incorporate changes in terminology as follows:
An existing instance of the Run-time Environment that was installed using rpm
cannot be upgraded. Before installing the new Run-time Environment, enter the following command as root to uninstall the existing Run-time Environment (if present):
rpm -e aksusbd-redhat
rpm -e aksusbd-suse
An existing Run-time Environment that was installed using the Run-time Environment installation script (dinst
) does not have to be uninstalled.
Perform the following steps to install the Run-time Environment for Sentinel LDK or Sentinel HASP:
rpm -i aksusbd-1.15-1.i386.rpm
INSTALL
inside the aksparlnx packages.Note: At this point, the firmware on the HL key will be automatically upgraded. During the upgrade process, the key will blink continuously. Do not remove the key while it is blinking. If you remove the key too soon, the key may no longer be visible in Admin Control Center. If the key is not visible, or if the upgrade does not occur, refer to "Upgrading HASP HL Key Firmware" below.
Do the following if you want to uninstall the Run-time Environment:
rpm -e aksusbd
The HASP HL Key Firmware has been modified to support future planned security enhancements in Sentinel LDK and Sentinel HASP. Sentinel LDK and Sentinel HASP automatically upgrade the Firmware on HASP HL keys from v.3.21 to the latest version (v.3.25). This occurs:
For HL keys with Firmware earlier than v.3.21, the upgrade does not occur automatically. Customers can upgrade the Firmware to v.3.25 by applying the Firmware Update V2C provided on the Sentinel HASP or Sentinel LDK Installation DVD v.5.0 and later.
During the Firmware upgrade, the relevant key will start to blink. Do not remove the key while it is blinking. If you remove the key too soon, the key may no longer be visible in Admin Control Center.
Note: In the event the key is no longer visible using the Linux Run-time Environment, do the following on a Windows computer:
The HL key is upgraded to v.3.25 Firmware and will now be visible in the Linux Admin Control Center.
