SQL Server 2000 License Query

Taz
Hello.

After searching Microsoft's website for hours and confusing myself more
than I was before I started...

Can anyone explain to me what the current state of affairs is for SQL
2000 licensing?

In particular with a server that has multiple processors and multiple
instances of SQL Server 2000 running - for both Standard and Enterprise
Editions of SQL Server 2000.

Please help!

Regards,
Taz

Look here:

http://www.developer.com/db/article.php/3502746

If you use server + cal licencing you have to buy server (per instance)
and Clients cals. If you use processor licencing you have to licence
every processor but you can have multiple instances on the server and
you need no cals for the clients.

Hi, Still in the design process of a Windows 2003 web server with a SQL backend. Expecting to have about 2000 visitors a day accessing lists and search queries on a 200-300 MB db. This server will be collocated in a datacenter. I have a few scenarios that I would appreciate in getting some comments/criticism on: Scenario 1: Box 1, SBS 2003 Premium (with SQL 2000), 2GB RAM, Raid 5 HD

I am planning to build a server to be used as a SQL Server and web server. Right now I can only use a single box for both. I have read some threads were dual processors are having problems with some parallel queries and the suggestions of having sql server use a single CPU. My budget is limited so I am debating whether to get 2.6G dual xeon 533FSB or dual P4 800FSB (DRR@ ram) or stick with a speedy single cpu. If I get a dual cpu...

Hi, Have a quick question. Having a problem connecting from the IIS server (windows 2000 sp3) which hosts the asp.net application to retrieve data from an SQL server (windows nt 4, sql 7).

I used query analyzer from the windows 2000 (has enterprise connectivity tools) machine and it works. Here is the...

Hey all, sorry for asking such a grunt question, and thanks in advance for any help... My hosting ISP offers access to their MS-SQL database, and my understanding is that it's generally simplest to use some sort of client app to do stuff like adding tables and whatnot. SQL Server includes Enterprise Manager, but since my ISP is running the server, I don't need my own copy of SQL Server, just the client.

First off, sorry if my cross posting offends anyone. I'm posting this in Access and SQL Server groups - not sure which one is appropriate. I have a relatively simple ASP.NET/VB.NET application that is now hitting an Access 2000 database over an intranet. We have to migrate the database to SQL Server 7. My experience with ASP.NET is pretty limited and my experience with SQL Server is nonexistent. We have an MSDN subscription, so I went...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
