Re: JBA ML - Backup machine auth code

["Kermit" <kermit_999@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think GEAC will be reluctant to supply you with Auth codes for any
reasonable duration for this backup machine, but what they do offer (in the
UK anyhow) is a facility called 'Safe-Guard' it enables you to use the web
to generate your own codes in the case of a disaster for any registered
machine on their database, so if you were to sign-up (at a small cost !) for
Safe-Guard, and register your backup machine with them, then in the event of
something happening to your live machine, you can instantly generate a
replacement set of codes for your backup machine (temps).
Contact your local support desk and ask them about the answerlink facility.
