This might be a silly question. How do I activate User cals on Server 2012? I couldn't figure out how to add them. Or is it do you buy just the user cals & Microsoft just trust that you have all the user cals that you need?

That did answer my question. I'm just surprised that Microsoft went to the honor system with this.

There is no honor, sir...The number of CALS you purchase will determine how many connections/users can access your server.

I don't see how that is true. Because I just put the server up. I have over 30 users connected to this server. And I have the user cals. But never enter in the keys. And everyone is working fine.

We are using Windows Server 2012 Standard.

CALS are indeed required. Did you purchase your Server 2012 with any CALS at the same time?
