>>Yeah, I checked it out. I was a little confused with their wording of
>>their licensing agreement, though. It mentions that certain TCP/IP services, such as Gopher, TelNet, FTP and HTTP are not part of Windows Networking Services, which means that you don't have to get a license (a 5-user license costs $809) for people who use those services. However, they say, "A PPP connection will most likely use Windows NT Server Remote Access Services and, if so, will require Windows NT Server Client Access Licenses." These things cost, man.

I think that MS charging for these licenses is ridiculous. It's like the phone company charging you for every person who calls your house!
