SBS 2003 license question/ Adding a new server to the domain
Posted by Neal on July 31st, 2006


Hello,

IÂ’m currently running Windows Small Business Server 2003 with 10 devise
cals. Here are my dumb questions...

1) Does the server that SBS is installed on count as 1 of the 10 licenses?
Or do I have 10 licenses for 10 other computers? (I hope that made some
sense)

2) I just bought a 2nd server with Windows Server 2003, what is the best way
to add this machine to my current domain? Do I have to use a SBS devise cal
for this new server or can I just plug it in to the network and join the
domain? What is the best way to do this?

Thanks for the help.

No, the SBS does not itself require a CAL.


A member server will need a Device CAL. You can use the Connect Computer
wizard for it, just like any other client.
