So we have an internal license server for intellij.
Installed idea, tried to connect to license server. It wouldn't connect.
Got at least, 10 devs and the admin to look at the problem. No one could find why it was not connecting.

After full 2 hours someone got the idea, came to my laptop and fixed it. Turns out windows firewall was blocking all requests from intellij.

Fuuuuuuuck

    I can't believe it. Sometimes I hate anti-virus software.

    I mean, that kind of is Firewall's job. If anything the intellij installation should have added an exception when setting intellij up.

    @RememberMe I think JetBrains is a company big enough for the Firewall to notice its certificate, though.

    @theKarlisK you have a point. Damn it.

    Next time just have them login to the master account and get the offline license.
