http://www.newatlanta.com/shared/bluedragon_sla.html Section 1.3 of the Bluedragon Software License Agreement very specifically prohibits the use of BlueDragon Server Free Edition for "commercial web hosting services" and prohibits sublicensing, which is essentially what a web hosting provider would be doing. It also very specifically says that the free version can be used for "non-commercial and non-governmental deployment". You can argue the defintion of "non-commercial" but IMO it's not restricted to "selling" something. building a simple brochure web site for a company would be "commercial use" Rick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
