While I remember - there *was* a problem with IP addresses being reversed
for some client connections - this caused (as you noted) the device
licensing pool to be incorrectly distributed between mixed session types
(telnet vs ODBC vs UO etc) - each having an unique and separate pool. So one
client with both a TELNET and an ODBC session (for example) to the same
server would consume 1 license seat in each of two separate DL pools (not
ideal).

This is wholly fixed I believe - you may have hit on a new wrinkle though. 

Are you saying that if you open a socket connection from a (license
consuming) UO.NET session which is part of a device license pool it consumes
a license *outside* the pool when it is not connecting to the same U2
database? (Remembering it is the client IP and MAC that determines what is -
and is not - part of a shared pool). If I have misunderstood this one could
you clarify please and the database and client software versions?

Hi

First, to clear the excess licences you can run the following from a CMD
prompt:

uvlictool clean_lic -a

This should check against actual processes and reset the count correctly.

I found problems with device licencing and versions of UO.NET - this
incorrectly reported the wrong client IP address and took an extra licence.
Also the iPhantom hit me - any program or subroutine called through a UO
session that opened a socket was incorrectly being considered a phantom and
so took an extra iPhantom licence. And there's always the old issue of
people closing terminal emulator windows without logging off.
