If you go the the {HOME} directory (in most case /root is the home directory for Amarisoft Callbox), you would see the directory .amarisoft. (NOTE : In some cases (like you just installed the callbox on brand new PC), you may not find this directory. In that case, create the directory .amarisoft )
Go to the directory /root/.amarisoft. (NOTE : If you use the Amari Callbox or UE sim as it is, you would always have this directory. But if you want to install the license to a new computure of your own, create this directory under /root directory)
Check if there is license file. If you get a new license key, put the license file in this directory
