If you ever modify the content of the license file, it will invalidate
it, and the license manager won't be happy. You should never change the
content of a license file, when you need a new one you should ask a new
one from RSI (is that who you meant by 'rsync' ?)
For your particular case, I would think the correct paths are set up in
the license files during the installation process. I would guess that
something went wrong during your installation. It might be a lot easier
to just re-install the thing... (maybe even using the "suggested" paths
to simplify the whole thing ;))
IIRC, the installation is a little confusing - you have to untar the
IDL archive directly in the final installation directory, and launch
./install from it, which is very unusual.

Yeah, I know, you're supposed to launch it at boot time like a service,
but I couldn't be bothered to set it up correctly :-)

Cheers
