PH 7.10.G1 AXP License Server Problems

[Hamilton, Allison]

Just an additional note... I can't find the release notes for 710F4/G/G1 so
I can't verify this (we're in the middle of a snow storm and the people I
can get it from decided to stay out of it!), but I thought it was documented
that when you upgrade, you need to modify the server line in the license
file to fix the format.  The license modify program was changed so that it
should fix the file format problem automatically when you alter the Server
line in any way...  You just need to essentially type one of the fields in
again, same as it was and the file will get fixed when the line is updated.
So, you shouldn't have to enter all the information again, just modify one
piece.
