We bought several new workstations and I'm in the processoftransferring SW licenses from the old machines to thenew. All was OK until I got to the last machine thismorning. The transfer says it fails (general server error orsomesuch).  However, as far the the local machine isconcerned,the transfer was successful.  Starting SW results intheactivation dialog being displayed.  However, it cannotbeactivated because the server thinks the license transferfailed. On the new machine, SW can't be activated for thesamereason, the server thinks the license count has been exceeded.

Good job code weenies.  Here's a Wikipedia entry you maywantto read:
