When manually running LicAdmin.exe, a dialog box may appear prompting for
information to log into the SQL database. If incorrect information is typed into
any of the fields or if they are left blank, a short Cancel loop may occur when
trying to use the Cancel button. Under certain situations, the Cancel button may
not work on the first try. It may take up to six Cancel attempts to actually
cancel the application.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0.
