FlexLM floating license for two applications on the same server

I am new to PTC but not new to FlexLM license servers.  I have one server with 3 different apps with their own FlexLM.  I have another server with just one application so wanted to install this new PTC license service on it.  I was able to get it to install and the service to start but it will only activate one license at a time even though both services are started.

 

Is it possible to run the PTC license service along side of another application?  I found a KB that says yes, but does not explain how.  The online instructions are not working as both are conflicting with one another.

Got it working.  Had to use the lmtools and lmgrd from the previous installation to create the service with the MathCAD license.  Not sure how to close this or mark as answered though.
