Using same SCO Openserver Enterprise 5.0.5. on 2 computers

[Mike]

Can I use the same SCO Openserver licence on two computers on the same
network.
I want to have a computer who is simply a clone of the other so I want
to put the second computer on the network and make FTP transfert
between the two computers. So if my "main" computer go down I can
simply switch on the other computer.

Thank you!

You'll get a repeated stream of console warnings from one or both machines
that
the same licenses are present on another machine on the network. These
warnings will also be written to /usr/adm/syslog .

Is this the only thing ? Is the syslog will be fill of those repeated
messages or messages will appear once a day or something like that ?
Is there any way to avoid those messages ? I've also heard that SCO
can "stop running". Is there any "danger" ? Is there any lost of any
functionnality ?

Thanks!

If the 2nd machine is merely a clone of the first, he could cron a
daily/weekly script on the clone to bring up the network interface,
perform the ftp transfer, then bring down the interface. This way,
the warnings would only occur for a brief period, and even then only
if the SCO broadcasts happen to occur during the FTP session.
