I am having several problems installing Intel Fortran version 16 from a user account (not root), using an offline license file.
First problem occurs at the end of installation. Some final steps require root privileges:
Finalizing product configuration...

After that, the ifort command cannot find the license file:
[braun@sequoia ~]$ ifort --version
Error: A license for Comp-FL is not available now (-15,570,115).
A connection to the license server could not be made. You should
make sure that your license daemon process is running: both an
lmgrd process and an INTEL process should be running
if your license limits you to a specified number of licenses in use
at a time. Also, check to see if the wrong port@host or the wrong
license file is being used, or if the port or hostname in the license
file has changed.
License file(s) used were (in this order):
1. Trusted Storage
** 2. /home/braun/COM_L__FOR_FGG2-F4LNKDX3.lic
** 3. /home/braun/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.109/linux/bin/intel64/../../Licenses
** 4. /home/braun/Licenses
** 5. /opt/intel/licenses
** 6. /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/Intel/Licenses
** 7. /home/braun/intel/compilers_and_libraries_2016.0.109/linux/bin/intel64/*.lic

I am using the new license file sent by Intel:
[braun@sequoia ~]$ pwd
/home/braun
[braun@sequoia ~]$ ls *.lic

Contents of license file:

The environment variable is set (is this still the right name?)
export INTEL_LICENSE_FILE=/home/braun/COM_L__FOR_FGG2-F4LNKDX3.lic
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally, will the license file only work on the server named sequoia? I have a 5-seat floating license using offline license files.
