Hi Nick,
If there are any active borrowed licenses then the license manager will tend
to do what you describe and will require rebooting the server. If you set
TIMEOUT then you should not get any 'zombies'. I do not recommend stopping
and restarting the license manager if you allow license borrowing.

(although it is not). It apparently does restart and does serve licenses
however a LMTOOLS server status does not show any clients (again even though
there are).
