From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i686) when trying to license my app. (Maya from AliasWavefront), flexlm cannot query the dongle in the parrallel port. 'lmhostid -flexid ' simply returns "" as the flexid. Both port and dongle works fine while running in windows.' So either its a problem with redhat7 or Globetrotter's flexlm Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. insert dongle into parallel port 2. run lmhostid -flexid 3. Actual Results: lmhostid returns an empty "" flexid string Expected Results: It should return the flexid of the dongle like: 7-b3423b or similar http://www.globetrotter.com/ the severity below doesnt have a matching line, this is quite severe since you cant license software using dongles.
It seems to be a flexlm problem, Im just now trying to confirm that flexlm on Linux does not currently support flexid dongles
This looks very much like a flexlm problem, and we're going to assume that it is such unless we find out information to the contrary. Please re-open this bug report with that information if you get it.
