Hey all,

I inherited a Netware server at work, but I have very little experience with Novell servers. A friend of mine said that Novell allows installation of NW 5.1 as kind of a demo product. He said that NW 5.1 will install with two licenses without the need to purchase the full software. He recommended that I install it this way to have a Novell server running that I can experiment on so I won't bring down my entire network by accident.

This sounds pretty good, but is it really true? I can see Novell doing this as M$ is taking more server share in the market, but I don't want to get burned for piracy.

Ideas? Suggestions? Recommendations?
