Licensing question

[jonnyknowsbest]

I am setting up a Disaster Recovery environment for our Exchange 2003 server that, when up and running, will provide OWA access to peoples e-mail on a backup server.

Although only OWA will be used to access e-mail, will each user still need a Windows Server CAL as well as an Exchange CAL?

(NOTE: All the users in question are employees of the company, so an External Connector license is out of the question)

Thanks

You won't need any extra CALs but you will need Server licences for both the Windows and Exchange.

That was a fairly simple answer and not one that's going to differ from region to region but in future don't ask licencing questions in public forums. The only people qualified to answer such things are approved Microsoft resellers.

Thanks for the response.

There is a reason why i didn't ask Microsoft themselves in the first instance, but i'll bear that mind next time.

Again,

Many thanks
