No Problem. No 3.12 does not support additive license, no you can't remove the license,
{except direct disk writing in hex and novell will not like that :-) }
the license is in server.exe, so very easy to fix if you install 2 by mistake. You will
get a broadcast copyright violation message. just down the mistaken server and put the
proper server.exe on your c drive. Cheyanne will fix your count problem if you call
them. This happened when Novell changed the way they issue license counts, there are
simple patches. Arcserve is still best and the leader on advanced features like there
push agent for high speed backups across the wire and there raid tape drive ect....
