unable to checkout a viewer license

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why though the Modelsim SE 5.7d license wizard reports a good license file, when i'm startin Modelsim I get the following message?
"Unable to checkout a viewer license necessary for use of the modelsim graphical user interface. Vsim is closing."

What is going on?

Your license is not detected
1) be shure that LM_LICENSE _FILE = C:\whatever your lic.dat
2) your license should include a name for the server
SERVER (the ETHERNET ADRESS ) And the port = 1650
example SERVER 972200128 1650
3) The modeltech daemon that is going to comunicate with modelsim
this is in the modeltec5.7\win32\modeltech
example DAEMON c:\modeltech5.7\win32\modeltech

And of course the license generated FOR FOR ..The ethernet adress that you mentiones in number 2
