keyserver problem

hi.
we have a network with a keyserver. all was working fine with archicad 8.1, but with archicad 9 the problem is that the computer where the keyserver is installed cannot run archicad. I watch the keyserver software log and found a problem:

3.15 13:37:48:710: Error - WkbOpen2(): Invalid handle specified.

i tried to install the most recent driver of wibu, but the problem persists.

I suppose the problem is archicad 9 because archicad 8 works in this specific computer (the one where is keyserver).

Thank you for any help

yes, the key is upgrade, it works. The problem is on the computer where the key is physical attached, archicad dont recognize the key as valid (i saw the error on wibu log). From any other computer on the network it works fine.
thank you

When I was trying to run ArchiCAD 9 on single computer with NET keyplug, it didnt work also. I have folowed the instructions on WIBU CD which says:

"On a standalone computer ArchiCAD doesn't recognize the NET WIBUKEY.

Workaround:
Set the server's IP address on the Start menu>Settings>Control Panel>WIBU-KEY program >Network tab page to 127.0.0.1. "

Maybe this will work for you too.
