license manager error on 2008 server

[Bruce Easton]

Gosh. Someone told me once about putting an initial slash in front of 
everything in the URL for a different purpose.   I tried that here for 
the PFDSK setting, and that seems to have fixed the problem (set 
PFDSK=/d).   For each of the runtimes, it took quite a while after 
selecting a file for the next expected screen to appear.  But after the 
initial use, they seem to be coming up right away.
