MSDE is free. And Microsoft has sent mixed messages about whether or not you can use MSDE to support a web site. Some or of their web pages in the past have indicated Yes. And some have indicated No.

As for the full blown SQL Server, I believe if you buy the per-processor license, there is no additional license necessary for supporting a web site. Otherwise, you may have to get a web connector license or something like that.

>If I have a database server to respond to a Web site. Does that mean I only need one license? Are there any special considerations I need to take care of within that context?
