One our customer informed us about the successful use of USB over Network with Sentinel UltraPro and ESX VMWare Server. His story is below.

Sentinel UltraPro USB dongle in a W2K3 server with USB-Over-Network to a W2K3 server VM on an ESX server does work - if you don't get too smart with the Sentinel driver install.
I used the Sentinel Protection Installer v7.3.0 via this page:

The Sentinel driver custom install options show 3 components: a server component, a USB driver component and a parallel component; I initially deselected the parallel component - (I like minimal garbage on our systems). It appears the USB dongle requires some part of the parallel drive component for the proper operation of the dongle/software key. With the parallel component deselected we could not get the dongle to work on a stand-alone PC (without USB-Over-Network), and eventually (accidentally ?) did a full load and bingo!!! I will question Sentinel about this behaviour, but for the moment I'm just glad to have a functional system.
