Is it reasonable to ask a hosting provider for proof of licensing for
server software such as NT, CF server, SQL server, e-commerce
applications, mail servers, etc.?  Has anyone done this?

On the one hand this would seem very intrusive - especially if the host
has multiple servers and you insist that they prove they have sufficient
licensing for all servers (and cpu's, where applicable).  On the other
hand, it strikes me that a large host might save tens or hundreds of
thousands of dollars by not fully licensing software, with little
likelihood of detection.

If your site is being hosted by an outside provider in a shared
environment what do you feel are your obligations for assuring that "you"
are properly abiding licensing agreements?

Thanks,
Jim
