Does anybody know a possibility to restrict the access to a web application by a license mechanism? I develop an intranet solution for a customer and want to regulate the access to this intranet application at the base of of licenses. If e.g. the customer acquires five licenses for his intranet solution, then he has the access right to the application from five definite computers. If the customer wants more workstation he has to buy more licenses... thanks in advance, peter lang ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
