You're using a Windows server, with a commercial, pay-for product; contacting either Microsoft or Autodesk support for assistance would be the best way to get help with this. There is nothing much we can tell you, since 99% of your problem isn't Linux based, nor have you posted any error(s)/message(s) that would indicate that it is. Rather, your problem indicates that the commercial software you're using isn't configured correctly.

thanks, will contact them and let you all know what they say
