You need to have as many CALs (client access licenses) as you do users who will connect. As far as I know each user must have their own CAL. Terminal Services works the way you're suggesting, but not this.
You might not be able to buy a 5.5 CAL anymore... You may have to buy Exchange 2000 CALs (isn't there a Exchange 2003 coming out? In that case buy THOSE CALs), since a CAL is "backwardly compatible."

If we need to have 250 users mailboxes do we need 250 licenses? Is is based on concurrent users--for example if a company has 1000 mailboxes but at any point only 50 people are connected to the exchange server do you only need 50 licenses? � Its a bit confusing, I am sure many of you will agree. We definitely want to make sure we do this the right way. � Many thanks. � Stew __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
