I just went through that on Thursday, and ended up deciding to take a bit more time for research. I called 3 companies, all said that the multi-pack is the only option, one told me to talk to their resellers and really didn't give me much more info than that.
Even if you wanted to run that $50 virus protection program on the server they check to make sure its not win2k server edition (or equiv). The 5 or 10 pack supports 2k server, but of course it seems overkill for one or two computers/servers only. One vendor told me the right thing to buy was their appliance. I am pretty sure they (the sales person, redirecting me to the resellers) didn't know what a web server really was however. So, though it's a bit off topic, what do people prefer to run on their web servers these days? I don't want to protect everything on the network (my little rack) from one centeral server. I just want two dev machines to be protected.

Anyone know which is the correct license to buy for loading Symantec AntiVirus on a dedicated web server? They only sell licenses in packs of 5 or 10 (depending on the product.) The license, to me, is vague. It says you need a license for each computer connecting to the computer via the network--but I'm also reading that to be each computer that's connected via the domain. I can't find anything about a specific "web-based" license. Any ideas? I need to get this AntiVirus software installed ASAP, but need to buy the correct license first. -Dan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:215921 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
