FlexLM "license.dat" file structure

Apologies in advance folks - I realize this isn't the proper forum,
but I can't find a "FlexLM issues" NG.

My server (Win2k) is running FlexLM (9.2) as a service. My
License.dat file looks like this:
--- cut here ---
Server xxx MAC-ADDR
Use_Server # not really needed on server

Vendor daemon_a
Vendor daemon_b
Vendor daemon_c

Feature FEATURE_A daemon_a 1.234 ...etc
Feature FEATURE_B daemon_b 1.234 ...etc
Feature FEATURE_C daemon_c 1.234 ...etc
--- cut here ---


I'm having problems with "daemon_c" & "feature_c". The daemon won't
run (that's one problem), and the LmTools "server status" tab seems to
indicate that it's trying to associate FEATURE_A with the daemon used
by FEATURE_C. Is there a "secret" order for parameters in the
LICENSE.DAT file? Is this a misdirection by LMGRD? Thanks in
advance.

--- cut here ---
Users of FEATURE_C: Cannot get users of FEATURE_C: No such feature
exists
Feature: FEATURE_A
License path: 27000@xxx
FLEXlm error: -5,222
For further information, yada yada yada

I'm being purposfully vague about daemons and vendors, because if I
start naming names, I'll have to throw in embellishments like
"collection of idiots", and "clueless morons" ;-)
