It's in the SQL Server Licensing Control Panel.

Where do you go to add more CALS? I looked in the licensing in control panel
and on the one in the Administrative Tools and I donât see it.

Yes they do. Every user who connects to SQL must have a CAL, regardless of
whether or not they're connected:
You have five users:
Bill
Bob
Mary
Jane
Sue
You own three user cals and one sequel box:
Your five users connect in this order:
Mary
Sue
Bob
Jane
Bill
The first three are given access and assigned a cal. The last two are denied
access until you do one of the following:
revoke two of the first three's cals (now they can't get in)
Buy more user cals and assign them to the server
If you buy a processor license, every user in your wan can connect. You cannot
have external users (random joe's on the net) access the server ntil you buy an
external connector which is like a super cal for all anonymous users on the net.
This make sense?

I looked over that link already. If I buy 50 PER USER Cals for 200
users to use then only a max of 50 at any given time can connect to
SQL.
When they disconnect from SQL, they don't hold onto the license do
they?

NO.
SQL does not support concurrent use licensing. It is per-seat licensing
or per-processor licensing.
You should read the link that Jeff provided.

So if I had a SQL Server, just one, and had 50 USER Cals with 200 users
but no more then 25 or 30 of the 200 users would be accessing the
server
at any given time, then this would okay?

Just the opposite is true! Per-Server licensing would be where you tie
a
certain number of CALs to the server and that many users/devices can
connect to just that server at any given time. These CALs cannot be
assigned to any other SQL server while they are tied to the original
SQL
server.
In Per-Seat licensing, you tie the CALs to specific users or devices
which can then access any SQL server. As many users/devices as have
CALs
can access a given server concurrently.
The last option is to buy per-processor licenses, which allows an
unlimited number of users (who don't need CALs) to access the SQL
server.
You probably want to read the SQL Server 2000 Pricing and Licensing
White Paper here, and think about whether you want to by Device CALs or
User CALs:

I just have a quick licensing question for SQL, SQL's per seat
licensing
is for concurrent connection right?
