Error: C9555E: Failed to check out a license.

Hi,

I have a licence that came with the Altera V Soc Dev Kit board. I have the ARMLMD_LICENCE_FILE set to point to the lic file. From within DS5 managed make projects the toolchain works find. If I want to call the compiler from a makefile outside of the DS5 ( from Cygwin console ) I get the "failed to check out a licence" error message..........

Is the licence somehow only working from within DS5 / Eclipse and if so why and wtf?

THanks

Mike
