Thanks, Larry, that's exactly what I needed to know. Between your facts and Bryan's links I've got everything to tell my client. I appreciate your taking the time to explain in detail.

>AFAIK, W2K Pro has a technical limitation on the number of concurrent connections that can be made to it. It also has a technical limitation in the number of web sites that can be configured. When I say technical, I mean the software blocks you from going beyond this limit even if you wanted to.

>I would recommend the Win2000 Server with 1 CAL. The CAL covers you as the administrator and thats it. If your client is only going to use the box as a web server and if they aren't going to run sites that require NT authentication (i.e. use only anonymous access), then that's all they need both legally and technically.
