Possible Duplicate:
Can you help me with my software licensing issue?

I'm evaluating how many user licenses I need for Windows Server 2008. There will only be two users who need physical / remote desktop to the server itself, but I plan to install Symantec Endpoint on this server. Will I need more licenses for Windows based on how many machines are using Endpoint?

  1. No, Symantec Endpoint and Windows CALs are completely separate. You need a Symantec license for every machine you will install on, not for each user.

    Each user that accesses a server requires a CAL. There are multiple ways to aquire CALS. You can learn about CALS here: Client Access Licenses
