Based on the FAQ, I would interpret it the way you do.and that's way the licensing specialist did too when I talked to 2 different ones a month ago.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/licensing/caloverview.ms px >From the link: The option to choose between the two types of Windows CALs offers you the flexibility to use the licensing that best suits the needs of your organization. For example: . Windows Device CALs might make most economic and administrative sense for an organization with multiple users for one device, such as shift workers. . Whereas, Windows User CALs might make most sense for an organization with many employees who need access to the corporate network from unknown devices (for example, when traveling) and/or an organization with employees who access the network via multiple devices. I have never heard that statement interpreted as that if you create user accounts for individuals on a single device you need user CALs. That's the point of a device CAL. - Andy O. ________________________________________ From: Bob Fronk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2008 8:06 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: CAL question Ok.. Just to make sure I am correct. MS Licensing CAL per device. One device in a remote location. (Windows XP / Office 2007 / Exchange 2003) I create 4 user accounts and mailboxes and they can access through that single PC, at different times of course. I don't need user CALs for this, correct?
