Here is how I did it:

Autorun, click "Install Abaqus Product & Licensing"

"Continue" on prompt for Documentation.

Under Installation type, choose "License".

host ip: 127.0.0.1

Choose "Install and start.."

Browse for the lincense (.dat) file in the crackfolder.

Continue on "license file not valid..."

Choose where to install the license server.

When complete browse to installation folder/License, run lmtools.exe

In tab "configure services", set path to lmgrd.exe (in license folder) and to the abq6101.dat which you should copy to the installation folder. You have to filetype to look for (to .dat) when you browse for it. Check "Use services" and "Start server at power up" if you don't want to start it manually each time.

Click save Service.

In tab Start/stop/reread click "Start server".

Return to the installation and install the main programme.

Use "27011@127.0.0.1" as License server 1.
