David Rolling - President www.Infovue.net On the Plains of Hesitation, Bleach the Bones of Countless Millions Who, at the Dawn of Victory, Sat Down to Wait and Waiting Died ========================================================= -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Cotter, Hilary Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2003 7:47 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Terminal Services and VPN or VPN Alone Check out http://www.betav.com/Files/Content/Whitepapers/msde_files/msde.htm Here William Vaughn says its 6, after which subsequent connections are throttled. So I was a little wrong. You can distribute MSDE free with your app. However you normally have to buy a product that ships with it to get hold of the engine in the first place - like Office 2000, OfficeXP, Visual Studio.NET, etc. Please correct me if I am wrong here:) Hilary 973 254-8140 732 687-2264 (cell) 888-236-8061 (pager) -----Original Message----- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2003 7:38 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Terminal Services and VPN or VPN Alone Actually, it *is* free. 100% And I thought it was 10 connects, not 5. -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
