Problem Title:
Workstation Install:  Invalid License Key (inconsistent encryption code
for....



Problem Description:
Keywords: Invalid, inconsistent, encryption, xilinxd, install

Urgency: Standard

When trying to start up the xilinxd license daemon the following message
scrolls up to the screen:

(xilinxd) Invalid license key: inconsistent encryption code for <xxxxx>


Solution 1:

There are two things to check for:
First make sure the hostname and hostid are correct
Then, make sure there are no spaces after the "\" continuation mark.

If these do not solve the error, have Customer Service generate a new
license.dat file.
