Q.
I received my NetWare 6 software today and the NetWare 6 box includes no license disk. Did I miss a step, not read the right readme file, or something else?

Dear Missing: We are living in a New century! Novell is using electronic licensing. Whoever Novell sends the software to should have received an e-mail with a Web link to "smartcert#.exe" (where # is an actual number). Once that link is downloaded, it is run and goes out to Novell and gets your license files for you.
You might want to download them once and then redistribute them, as opposed to giving everyone at your company the smartcert software. That way you protect yourself and Novell.
