NETWORK LICENSE MANAGING SYSTEM AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a network license managing system with which the license of content, etc., can be permitted in a network. SOLUTION: A CD-ROM 23 stores content data 24 such as 'Kojien' (Japanese dictionary) and its retrieval software, for example. A floppy disk 21 stores a content license 22 such as a user name or utilization time with which the content data 24 can be utilized. When utilizing the content data 24 through a network 3 by a user terminal 9, a server 2 checks the contents of content license 22 and applies the license to the user terminal 9.
