PH License Server (FLEXlm/VMS)

[Latimer, Richard]

We are on PH 7.10g / VMS 6.1 and had considerable trouble getting it to work
correctly, like you we use tcp/ip connections only - these were our findings
at the time:


> PH610E ran under a Cognos supplied license mechanism.  
> 
> PH7nn runs under a new licence mechanism called FLEXLm, a 3rd party
> product used by Cognos.
> 
> FLEXLm will NOT run if DecNet service is NOT started AND it needs the
> right version of DecNet. (Will only work with DecNet Phase IV NOT DecNet
> phase V).
