I have a MATLAB server which hosts a license manager (`LMTOOLS by Flexera Software LLC`) and few clients. 

When you run use a toolbox function such as `datestr(busdate(date))` you automatically checkout the Financial Instruments toolbox from the server. The license is returned to the server only when you close the session. Is there a way to force a particular client to return the license? A user forgetting to close his/her session can affect everyone as the administrator has no way to return the license to the server.

You can use:

```
lmutil lmstat -a -c "MYPATH\network.lic" --> to check license-borrower details
Output: ......john.doe PCNAME PCNAME (vxx) (SERVER/3300 123), start Tue 8/5 10:30

```

I tried using:

```
lmutil lmremove -c "MYPATH\network.lic" Fin_Instruments_Toolbox john.doe PCNAME PCNAME

```

but it returned just 1 line output *lmutil - Copyright (c) 1989-2012 Flexera Software...* and did not check-in the borrowed license. Any idea how to do this without closing the borrowing Matlab session? I even disconnected the client from the network but that didn't help.
