#Add two outgoing tunnels
<pre>
  Name   | Listen Port| Dest Host    | Dest Port | Allow Local 
Connections Only | Type

  Maya 1 |  1711      | thor.diku.dk |   1711    |              yes 
         | tcp
  Maya 2 |  1706      | thor.diku.dk |   1706    |              yes

<pre>
  Host name: tyr.diku.dk (or ask.diku.dk)

#Then start the program

</pre>
#Choose item "from a file", and point to the lincense file in c:\flexlm\
