Seems that you have met the SCO copy protection :=)

You can't run two or more machines with the same serial number and activation
key of the tcp package within the network.

The program cpd keeps track of this and dies if it gets a packet on port
60000/udp which has the same serial number as this cpd.

Killing cpd on a machine will lock up the machine completely since every
tcp program checks for a running cpd.

The solution to this should be obvious...
