I would have thought this is per connecting device or in this case per server. A standard SQL 2000 CAL (not processor CAL but user CAL) is per seat, ie. per user connecting to the SQL server. Therefore, it would make sense (kind of - this is MS afterall) that the license belongs to the user (LocalSystem) on each server ! If you had 5 servers, each obviously has it's own LocalSystem account accessing the SQL 2000 DB, therefore, 5 CAL's ! I may be way off here, but MS licensing appears to be very specialist subject these days depending upon your agreement and whether your pre or post July 31st !!!
