Number of CALs?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.advanced_server (More info?)

I'm sure this should be really really easy, but I can't seem to find it ...
I've just taken over responsibility for a Windows 2003 Standard server. I'm
fairly sure it has 5 CALs, but:
1. How can I confirm the number of CALs?
2. How can I tell if/when I need to purchase more?

If this isn't the best group to ask the question then I would be grateful if
someone could direct me to a better one.

thanks,

Brian.

Thanks. I didn't have the license logging service running, but now I have I
can access licensing.
