What Licenses?

[happyhacker]

I am trying to decide if the User or Client CAL is best (or a mixture). Some of our users may occasionally want to logon to another office PC and so a User CAL but does that mean that some of the Outlook configuration on their usual PC is missing?

Can a user have both a Client and User CAL?

We certainly may need to logon from outside the office (I am going to setup a fixed DN). Does this require another type of license (for remote working) per user?

Thanks for your time.

SBS2008 licensing is done on a trust basis. If you have more users accounts than devices - get device cals. if you have more devices than users - get user cals. Getting one over the other will not stop you from doing anything.

Mostly office users logon via their own desk PC but if the office is used for a meeting they may want to use someone else's. So it looks like user CALs. As you say there appears to be no particular issue either way. Thanks.
