NOTE: Due to our knowledge base search history, we would like to clarify that the spelling is with an L, not an i, so we added this sentence to make sure searches for FLEXim and FLEXIm still end up here at the FLEXlm or flexlm support article. Also, some/many FLEXlm problems arise from internal IT/network/firewall configurations that Altia cannot assist with. NOTE: Since FLEXlm is a third-party tool, Altia cannot support it directly.
