    I have two questions pertaining to server licensing:
    1) If I want to install an open source sFTP server on windows 2003 std, do I need any kind of CALs?
    2) Is the windows 2008 web server edition licensed per processor or per machine?

    Hi MillenniaIS,

    "1) If I want to install an open source sFTP server on windows 2003 std, do I need any kind of CALs?"


    IMHO there is no requirement of CAL to be installed for open source SFTP server

    For your second question

    I suggest contacting Microsoft Licensing Center for detailed explanation.

    Also you can call 1-800-426-9400 (select option 4), Monday through Friday, 6:00 A.M. to 5:30 P.M. (PST) to speak directly to a Microsoft licensing specialist.
