A few questions about v10 v11 licenses and RAS

[jambu]

I have a pc with XI server and developer installed and have been writing asp.net apps in vb.net using both the report viewer and the CE sdk.
I would like to generate reports on the fly using RAS but I get an error about having zero concurrent user licenses when I try to use the RAS sdk. This is down to the fact that my version of report server came with a 5 named user license.

I also have CE10 and CR10 professional and CE10 Advanced developer and CE10 Embedded server.

What I would like to know is the following.

1) Am I right in assuming that RAS needs concurrent user licenses in XI and that I would therefore have to buy a license pack (I only need this for development and don't want to spend too much money at the moment, anyone know how much the licenses cost?).

2) I seem to remember the embedded version of CE10 includes RAS and perhaps the appropriate licenses?

3) If the answer to 2 is right can I install CR10 Advanced Developer and CE10 Embedded server over my CRXI system without too many problems?

I hope that makes sense, thanks in advance.

1) RAS works with named users. Is the user you logging in as a concurrent user? Make sure you disconnect when you no longer need the license.
2) Standalone RAS does not exist in XI. recommendation is to use CR Server.
3) Take on off, before you put the second on. You can't have multiple versions of the server apps.
