Not impossible, it depends on how complex the dongle's authentication is. Some of the older CAD parallel dongles were pretty basic and worked on a simple handshake eg: software checks to see if dongle is attached, yes, ok load which could easily be replicated with a PIC.

But i suspect in this case probably not and as said, you're best bet might be to RDP/VNC the licensed machine.

indeed thats why they put the licenses on the dongle, you can usually have the application on any PC but need the dongle to license / activate the software.

Nope. Have to buy another licence/dongle. Usually there is not way of "copying" them.

Doggle ???



I think you mean you have it connected into a parallel port on the machine. Can you not use VNC/RDP from the second machine ?
