sql server replication:

Hello

I am using SQL SERVER 2005 and i am using merge replication in order to
have my database replicates on handhelds.I have a virtual directory on
IIS the handhelds are synchronising through GPRS .

On the publication Acces list i use the server/IUSR_server default iis
user
and on the acces snapshot files through FTP i use anonimous login

Now my Question is do i need any user licence except from one for the
SQL in order to synchronice more than one handhelds with the database?

Or i need licences as mutch as the number of handhelds.

Thanks
Savvas

My understanding is you need server cal + device cals. So if you have 20
pdas, you need licencing for a server with 20 device cals + a server cal.

From
http://download.microsoft.com/documents/uk/partner/sol_and_products/servers/sql/downloads/SQL_Product_Guide.pdf

Server plus device CALs. Requires a license for the device or user running
SQL Server, as well as a CAL for each client device.

Or you can get a processor licence for the SQL (a bit pricey), but then you
don't have to worry about CALs.
