Default Licenseing Problems -- HELP!

I installed SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 Enterprise. I have an upgrade license
for OpenServer 5.0.7 Enterprise, and a full license for 5.0.5 Host.

Question 1: Do I need an enterprise licence for 5.0.5 to use the
upgrade 5.0.7 Enterprise license and do a fresh install?

Question 2: To add the 5.0.5 license, do I just run `scoadmin lic` and
add it as another license?

Well, if memory serves, to upgrade from SCO 5.0.x Host to 5.0.7
Enterprise you should have received:

.. a license from SCO 5.0.x Host to 5.0.7 Host
.. an upgrade license from SCO 5.0.7 Host to 5.0.7 Enterprise

Then, I think you can perform the upgrade by _FIRST_ booting the system
using the 5.0.7 floppy/CD, licensing it using the "5.0.x to 5.0.7 Host"
license and performing an upgrade/fresh install.

You'll end up having a 5.0.7 Host system that you can now upgrade to
5.0.7 Enterprise; to do this, fire up "custom" and then upgrade to 5.0.7
Enterprise entering the appropriate license.

Best,
Roberto
