Digi AnywhereUSB: Only 1 VM at a time?

Hi all,

We got a Digi AnywhereUSB 5-port box to test with one of our license-dongle-requiring guest machines. It works great--for that machine. I was under the impression that one of these Digi boxes could be shared across the network by any VM that needed access to it. However, after installing it, only the first VM I connect to it can connect to it. All others say "Not available for connection: Already in Use."

Was I mistaken that these are usable by any networked device with the drivers loaded? Are they restricted to one guest connecting to them at a time? (If so, that sucks!) It may be that I just haven't configured things properly. Thanks in advance to the AnywhereUSB user who can shed some light on this for me.

P.S.--Dell 2950 16GB w/ ESXi4 b219382
