and novell fixed that. when two copies are run on the same net they start 
transmitting license violation messages every 5 minutes. thats broadcast not
email. how do i know? 'cause when the novell people here upgraded and replaced
servers we had 1 license on two machines while the data files were being copied.
i can assure you the dos people found it to be very anoying.
we also had a custom 300,000$ project here that some idiot put a dongle on.
we have now gotten them to redesign their sw to run w/o it or be in violation
of the contract. they paid for it not us.
