Hi all,
I'm looking to get a Windows Server 2003 box in the middle of my linux network. :(
I'm just concerned about CAL licensing for it.
No devices will access any network server function of Windows Server 2003. I don't need Windows for DHCP or DNS or file and print sharing. I have linux boxes to do that! xD
I just need a box running Windows (of some variety) to host those few apps that have to run on Windows like my AV management console.
In short do I need any CALs for my server if its not acting as server itself.
I think Windows Server 2003 comes with 5 CALs which can be per user for the admins to use RDP?
Thanks,
Phil
