salamz,

nak tanya pasal Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition, yg include 5 Client Access License tu.

bole brief dgn lagi details tak apa maksud 5 client access license tu? dengar kata maksudnya adalah utk lesen 5 workstation yg lain untuk access ke server tu? macam mana pulak procedure dia? dan dalam box server tu, ada 5 cd. adakah kena install kat 5 workstation tu setiap satu cd untuk workstation tu access ke server? konpius ni, tolong.

Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition ni, maksudnya besides the OS, it also includes microsoft exchange server 2003, windows sharepoint services, outlook 2003, wsus services and share fax service. that's why it comes with 5 CDs. all the CDs are for the servers. maksud 5 CALs, only 5 clients can access the server concurrently, or at the same time. you need to activate the license on the server. by default, the server allows only one client to access it concurrently. so, if you need more than 5 users/client to access the server concurrently, you need to buy extra CALs.

for Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 Premium Edition, i think it also comes with sql server 2005 (workgroup ed.), ISA server 2004 and frontpage 2003.

ok nak double confirm,

maksud oobi only 5 clients can access the server concurrently tu, maksudnya hanya 5 user bole masuk ke server tu remotely ke? kalau ya, bole terangkan macam mana nak masuk remotely tu? adakah menggunakan remote desktop connection? macam mana pula kalau guna vnc?

sorry, oobi silap. maksud sebenar 5 CAL tu, bukan 5 users can access the server concurrently. but, you can assign up to five users or five devices to connect to the server, or mix between them (2 users and 3 devices, etc.) - doesn't matter whether the users or devices access the server concurrently or at different time.

CAL memang very tricky, oobi pun tak berapa faham and selalu confuse. but, in general, kalau you assign CAL to devices, you have to use the same devices to access the server, doesn't matter how you access the server, whether you use RDC, VNC, drive map, etc. (because, every time you access the server, you will authenticate youself). so, people memang almost tak buat yang ni. usually people assign CAL to users. this way, you can access the server from any devices (PC, mobile phone, GPS, etc.), but you can only use the 5 users that you assign CAL to, to access the server. confuse? i know.
