    Theres one more thing i would like to know. Ive seen a 25 client edition for WS 2003. Does this mean that the Server with the OS onit is licenced to SERVE 25 workstations and the workstations have a seprate OS on it like XPPRO for example or does it mean the OS can be installed on 25 workstations as well as the server?

    Im not quite sure how it all works

    it relates to the number of terminal sessions you're allowed to serve. by default, 2k3 allows 2 clients to connect, for administrative reasons. you need to buy licenses to serve more than that - though it takes 120 days before it complains about WPA, so you get 120 days of infinite access to play with.

    You are absolutely correct with option 1; all MS Server OSes and apps (like Exchange, SQL Server, SMS etc) are not merely licensed by server (with a few "odd-duck" exceptions) but by client also, and the clients MUST have their own licensed OS. A standard CAL (Client Access License) allows you to connect to the server or app specified in the CAL, or to an earlier version (so a 2000 Server CAL entitles you to connect to NT4 Server as well but not 2003 server). Terminal sessions are different; Terminal Services requires a CAL for all clients and also a Terminal Services CAL for clients running lesser OSes (so a user running NT4 or 98 who connects to a Windows 2000 Terminal Server needs both, but a Windows 2000 or XP Pro user only needs a standard CAL, but the 2000 user would need a TS CAL as well if they were connecting to a 2003 Terminal Server - I think - since the server OS is the next generation on from 2K). Confusing as ****, isn't it?

    nice one. Yeh it is confusing. Licence to serve 25 clients not 25 client licence. Would clear things up a bit i feel

    You'll probably find that the 25 client version is Win2003 Enterprise server (i.e equivikent of Windows 2000 Advanced server).
