FlexLM is generally regarded as a fairly crappy license manager if you 
know anything about assembler/machine code for a given platform.

I'm not advocating anything here, but if you've ever had a production
application down at 2:00am due to a fub'd license file, you can quickly 
find out just how crappy it is.
