Re: Weird problem with 4js BDL licence

The relicense MAGIC could be caused by one of the following in
my experience:    New IP, New I-node of key informix files (possibly
caused by a copy or restore, or a date change).   The date change
may be culprit in that when you reboot, the BIOS may have an incorrect
date, and thus your UNIX clock is off.  The files could be timestamped
into the future, which would freak out the BDL License.
