Also, from http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/professional/help/default.asp?url=/W INDOWS2000/en/professional/help/lic_what_eula_say.htm (URL may wrap) Where do I find my End User License Agreement (EULA)? The EULA may be found in one of several different locations, depending on your Microsoft product. The three most common locations for the license agreement are: (1) printed on a separate piece of paper that accompanies the product; (2) printed in the User's Manual, usually on the inside front cover or the first page of the manual; or (3) located online within the software product. Open the EULA Note To view the EULA, click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Windows Explorer. Double-click the systemroot folder (usually winnt), click Show Files if necessary, and then double-click the System32 folder. Click Show Files, and then scroll down and double-click eula.txt. this is correct (apart from the $ problems - do I now have to call linux, lumix in retaliation? ? :-) [1] )) Original releases of NT4 workstations had no limit in the elua. More recent versions of NT4W have it in the ELUA as does W2K Pro If you have a copy of NT4 with the licence that does not define a limit you are OK to use that (I am not a lawyer but you agreed at the time to the conditions of that licence when you bought it. they cannot change the rules after you have bought something) I read the limitation in the new licencing docs. regards Dean [1]lumix is a play on lummox see http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary -----Original Message----- From: Eugene Nesterenko [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, 20 June 2001 5:31 AM To: 'Patrick Lotti' Cc: '[email protected]' Subject: RE: [FW1] WINDOWS 2000 Patrick, I'm not M$ spokesperson or legal expert. My specialization is somewhat different. The matters around software licensing are not perfectly clear. And not only for M$. The only thing I _absolutely_ sure is that there is a limit of 10 connections (server type) per Windows WS and W2K Pro. More to say - that was _exactly_ what I was told by M$ account manager. If you or your company are wealthy enough to dispute that with M$ - you're very welcome. Everyone will be proud of you.

Please quote the eula.txt! As far as I know there's no limitation of connection!
