"export ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE=@192.168.1.233"
what am i doing wrong, how do i also call it a filename as it says ie .flexlmrc

Sorry, but is this a trick question?
The instructions from Autodesk support you link to (and have you CALLED Autodesk support for assistance with their pay-for product???) specifically tell you that it looks for the .flexlmrc file in whatever users home directory. So no matter WHERE you put that in their .profile, .bashrc, .bash_profile, whatever...it will not work. The instructions say that.
You can deploy things to all new users using the /etc/skel directory, but aside from that the solution to your problem is in the link you posted. In short, follow their instructions.
::EDIT::
I thought this sounded familiar:

Working on this for two months, and you said you were going to follow up and 'let us know'.
