Nijso,

Is this from E. S. Cheb-Terrab, T. Koloknikov, First Order ODEs, 
Symmetries and Linear Transformations, European Journal of Applied 
Mathematics, Vol. 14, No. 2, pp. 231-246 (2003)?  I wrote an 
implementation of this as part of the contrib_ode function.  Look in 
the  share/contrib/diffequations/ directory.  The code is ode1_lie.mac 
and the examples and unit tests are in the tests subdirectory

The code works well for some cases but runs "forever" for other cases.  
There are a number of test cases from Kamke and Murphy that are 
commented out for this reason.  I understand that the Maple routine 
doesn't have the same problem.  I haven't been able to fix this.
