If you launch Nuke 7 without a license, the status report
says it doesn't find an RLM license, so I guess is the Foundry
is switching Nuke over to RLM as well. Great!

I just checked my USB Ethernet dongle with the new license
server on OSX but it failed... I guess it only works on Linux/BSD
servers. In OSX you can't choose the order of appearance of
the nics.
As far as I could check this is not important anymore in Linux/BSD
but in OSX it obviously is. (haven't got anything Windows here)


I've got a Raspberry Pi here, and I think it's not worth the effort
of getting the licenseserver to run on it. 
Why don't you get an old PC somewhere, install any Linux on it
and serve the licenses over the web? Really any PC will do as
long as it's x86.
