My apologies; I assumed you wanted to find someone with a disc so they could make you a copy. I presumed that if someone had a copy, they would not want to transfer it to you, since they were presumably saving it for some reason. > By the way, in the same vein, be sure not to use anything but the very > install disks you got with your individual copy of your server software > to do reinstall.

As I mentioned, most licenses do permit copies to be made by the purchaser, for internal use, for purposes of installation, staging, and/or backup. And even if they did not, the law specifically allows for such use. See US Code, Title 17, Chapter 1, Section 117, Subsection (a). http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode17/usc_sec_17_00000117----000-.html -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
