MM has told us that we only need one license. I'm afraid I don't know all of the whys and why nots but it does work. Basically you would pay us $200USD a month and would have your own install of CF and Windows. Cheaper than buying the licenses yourself so that is good but it's still not as powerful as your very own server. It works quite well though for customers we have that no longer want to be in the shared enviornment but cannot commit to a dedicated server contract.

Say you split a dual CPU server so it supports 4 virtual servers and host a CF customer in each. What do you need in licenses?
