Dear SCO Customer,

Support Level Supplement (SLS) PTF7124B, the Licensing Supplement, modifies
the license manager so that adding certain licenses twice does not result 
in the license manager failing to run.  SLS PTF7124B also provides an updated
license map file that corrects a problem licensing some additional products,
and a problem registering some UnixWare 7 systems.  

SLS PTF7124B fixes these problems: 

    - Adding certain licenses twice using the license manager could 
      corrupt /var/netls/nodelock by adding duplicate product licenses.
      This caused subsequent attempts to run the license manager to fail.

The following fixes were also present in PTF7124A:

    - If UnixWare 7.0.0 or 7.0.1 was installed and licensing deferred, 
      no system ID was generated, making it impossible to register the 
      system at a later date. 

      Associated SCO tracking numbers: ul98-08302, 500855

    - UnixWare 7.0.0 and 7.0.1 did not correctly recognize some product 
      licenses.  The licenses that were not correctly recognized include:

                1GB Maximum Memory
                4GB Maximum Memory
                8GB Maximum Memory
                16GB Maximum Memory
                32GB Maximum Memory
                64GB Maximum Memory
                Veritas On-line Data Manager
                Veritas VxVM With Mirroring

Note: With some layered products (for example, Netscape products), if 
      you add a license using the license manager before you install 
      the software, the license will appear in the license manager as:

            "License for unknown software with ID xxxx" 

      You must install the layered software for this license to be correctly
      recognized by the license manager.
