license manager error on 2008 server

[Bruce Easton]

Thanks, Nancy.  In this case it is not shared - the client just has a 
dedicated d drive for all of the filepro stuff to go.  I haven't 
finished making sure everything is OK, but if you'll see the other email 
i just posted - it shows that putting this leading slash in helped.  
This is a virtual machine.

Bruce
