Change AutoCAD from standalone to network

I post this for my own memory as with much else on this blog but it might as well be useful for you.

Use the registry and change Type at this location. (change the x depending on version and vertical/flavor. For example AutoCAD 2007 is R17.0\ACAD-5001:409).

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\AutoCAD\Rxx.x\ACAD-xxxx:xxx\AdLM]
"Type"=dword:00000019

19=network license NLM
2a=standalone licence SLM

Using the registry hack with AutoCAD 2009 and later the cascading licensing service doesn’t install, so cascading will not work, if you install network version then PLU doesn’t install and user will not be able to transfer his license
