Run FP license manager on netbook?

I was looking for a method to create a good, easily recoverable, backup 
system for the FP License manager.

I only have one server and I don't want to hold a second just in case.  
Making the Filepro files available to people is easy since I can make it 
available from any shared drive and point people's computers to any new 
fileserver is set up.  But the license manager requires that the server 
be set up with a particular user name.  So I figured I could setup the 
manager on a netbook running Linux and simply have it sitting on the 
side in case of a server meltdown of some sort.

I'm not a Linux or License Manager expert so I wanted to know if others 
here, who know a lot more about this stuff than I do, think that this 
seems reasonable?
