Can I connect to the license server from home via my ISP to use Matlab or Mathematica on my Tufts laptop:
Programs such as Matlab and others that check out FlexLM based network concurrent licenses can not be used directly over the Internet, as you can while on campus. IP filtering limits license check-outs to the Tufts network domain. You may use the Tufts VPN solution to obtain check-outs. See the Services menu choice on this page.
