Hi Ryan,
I decided to add a third machine to the mix and am now of course in need of a working license. Before I just used the 2 machine free license for my testing. I tried to install the license, but am having trouble to get the server to start. As you can see, it either throws and error or with sudo use complains about root rights and exits. I copied the binaries from the Mac folder and checked that everything is set to accessible permissions (775 in this case). Any ideas?
