I heard from Thomas Graichen that the mathematica
floating licence manager does not work correctly with
FreeBSD.

I just thought I'd mention that my success with
Mathematica was with a machine-specific licences.  I
don't run a separate license server but rather
installed a 'mathpass' file on a single machine.

You run 'mathinfo' on that machine, give the output of
'mathinfo' to the Wolfram sales department and they
gave you a valid 'mathpass' entry which you install on
the machine which you intend to run mathematica.

That doesn't solve the prolbem if you really do want a
floating 'network' license, but I can tell you that
this works just fine.  Rich
