	Is there a NAT'ing firewall in the mix?

	If so, that could be the problem; Rush looks at the IP packets
	to determine the return address in order to make replies, so if
	there's a NAT'ing firewall rewriting the return address to be
	the firewall's own, that could be the issue.

	Is 10.1.1.1 the correct IP address for ns2?
	Also, what are the hostnames and IP addresses of the machines
	at either end (license server and client), and can you show
	the 'rush -lah' report from both of these machines.

	If you prefer, you may want to reply to me via private email
	with this info if you don't want it to be public.

	Definitely you should be able to make this work, as there
	are several customers doing this (VPN WAN setups sharing licenses).
