Licensing agreements for large companies are generally worked out between salesmen. Volume license agreements, per seat licensing, downgrade rights, etc. are all negotiable. Also, large companies generally have a compliance division of one sort or another to keep things mostly legal. A certain amount of non-compliance is generally winked at when the account is large enough. -ajb -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
