SBS MSDN Version

[Newton]

I am installing MS Small business server from the latest MSDN disks. The install is saying that there is only one Client License installed and there appears to be no way to change this. I have two workstations and one server so this is really not a good evaluation platform for me (besides who ever heard of running a server for one workstation??).

The retail version comes with 5 licenses but for some reason in Microsofts wisdom they have locked down the MSDN and NFR versions to 1 license.

Any ideas of work arounds for this? Registry edits??

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance....

I don't know specifically about the SBS, but I've seen MSDN in the past limit connections to their servers to about 10. I think it's hard-coded in the programs to keep people from deploying development tools in a production-level environment. I ran into this at a previous company with NT 4, and we basically had to buy the full version and rebuild the server...
