Okay, I finally found the answer to my first question. In an Allaire 
Knowledgebase blurb, it definitively states that we CANNOT use CF 4.0 on 
W2K:

However, I still have my dual environment/licensing question...

Thanks!

Hey all,

I have several questions regarding an upcoming migration from Win NT 4.0/CF
4.0 to W2K/CF 4.5.

First of all, I noticed that on Allaire's site, it does show that the system
req for CF 4.5 is Win NT 4.0. However, I recall seeing some posts and/or
info elsewhere (that I unfortunately can't find) alluding to an
incompatability between CF 4.0 on W2K. Is this correct, and if so, what are
the issues?

Secondly, we only have one machine at our disposal from which to run both
development and production (I know, it's not a recommended scenario, but
we've been hit with those good ol' automotive industry budget cuts ;)
Anyway, we want to have these dual environments on the ONE machine, but with
different directory structures. For example, production might point to
"info.ourinternalserver.com" and development might point to
"dev.ourinternalserver.com". We really want to avoid having the development
area as a subdirectory of production.
I know that CF 4.0 admin only allows you to define one root directory.  Will
4.5 now support what we are trying to do? Can we get away with one license,
or will we need two?

One of the corp resellers told me that he believes we would need two
licenses for this scenario, because we are essentially running two different
environments. So even though it is technically one machine, we are using it
for dual purposes (dev and prod).

Has anyone else tried this? All info is greatly appreciated!

Terri
