make sure that you update the LM_LICENSE_FILE variable that is specified
in the .cshrc file located in each user’s home directory. You must edit the
.cshrc file for each user, or provide clear instructions that describe which
lines the user needs to enter or edit:
v Make sure that each user has an LM_LICENSE_FILE variable that is
set to the full directory path name of the license file. To update this
variable, add the following line to the .cshrc file for each user:
setenv LM_LICENSE_FILE /usr/local/flexlm/licenses/
license.dat

Specifying Multiple License Files and/or Servers

specifications with colons (:), with no spaces between the names and
numbers. For example:
