      How do I fix this error?
      I've double-checked the mac address, and it's correct.

      Can you compare if the hostID listed in the first line of the license file matches one of the output values from "Get System HostID Info" in the License Manager?

      I suspect if you run the followoing, it will result in failure:  /InstallPath/shared_files/linx64/lmutil -v 
      Please install Linux Standard Base (LSB) package.

        Thank you, I will try that. In the meantime, is it necessary to download the Enterprise License Manager for Linux, or will the Ansys License Manager install and run fine on Linux?
