##### **Background information**:

The connection to license.advantest.com with port 443 was not really available, but for the FNE server software it looked like that a connection is possible, therefor it tried and failed.

**Solution**: Enter the line

**`0.0.0.0   license.advantest.com`**

to file **`/etc/hosts.`**
