Karl There are a couple of licensing models with different scenarios.
The standard base is server license, which is a concurrent license per connection. This means that is the user is running a UniObjects access, has an ODBC connection and a telnet connection open they would require 3 licenses even though it is the same user and device. The more expensive enterprise license allows 10 accesses from the same device so the above example would only use one license. U2 has concurrent licensing which means that if you have a 100 users, but only 10 using it at any time then you only need 10 user licenses. Most RDBMS require you to purchase a 100 licenses and if the users access the system from a second device they are required another license again. U2 at this moment does not provide server licensing which other RDBMS provide which is a price per processor of the box.

We are adding clients and users and have bumped against the 'out of licenses' thing. I've ordered a few more, but am wondering what philosphies you may have implemented to determine how many, and if you get, extra licenses over and above what your userbase demands.
