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.

[1]lumix is a play on lummox see http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary

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.
Regards,
Eugene

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