Trend Micro: SMLicense line in notes.ini

I am running the following:

and have been for awhile.  I noticed that in this version there is no 
SMLicense=... line in my notes.ini.  It stores the serial number in the 
smconf.nsf.  Most of the servers are running fat, dumb and happy.  However 
some of them generate:
09/29/2004 06:00:16    ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR
09/29/2004 06:00:16    Your License-Key of TM MailScanner is invalid.
09/29/2004 06:00:16    Programm aborted. Your Mail stay DEAD in MAIL.BOX
09/29/2004 06:00:16    ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR
(Love the way they spell "program" and "stays".)

Opened up a case with Trend.  They suggested putting in a SMLicense line 
back in the notes.ini.  Now, another gent there suggested changing the 
serial number in the smconf.nsf to something invalid and changing it back, 
then tell tmmscan quit followed by load tmmscan.  Both solutions worked. 
The second failed after a spell (perhaps until the nightly server bounce). 
 The adding of the SMLicense is working (but I haven't done the nightly 
server bounce yet).  I've got other Domino partitions on this same lpar 
that are not having any issues with scan mail - working fine.  Same key in 
the smconf.nsf and no key in notes.ini.
