Product Description
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard with 5 CALs . A Windows Client Access License (Window CAL) is required in order to access or use the server software. New user-based CAL. Microsoft is introducing a new type of CAL. In addition to existing device-based CALs (Device CAL), a user-based CAL (User CAL) will be available for purchase. You can choose to purchase a Windows Device CAL for every device accessing your servers, or you can purchase a Windows User CAL for every named user accessing your servers. By having two types of CALs, you are able to use the model that makes sense for your organization. For example, purchasing a Windows User CAL might make more sense if your company has a need for employees to have roaming access using multiple devices. Windows Device CALs may make more sense if your company has multiple-shift workers who share devices. Similarly, Terminal Server (TS) will offer both device-based and user-based CALs: TS Device CAL and TS User CAL. New name for Per Seat licensing mode and expanded usage right. The two CAL licensing modes that exist in Windows 2000 Server still exist, but one of the modes has a new name: The Per Seat mode has been changed to the #34Per Device or Per User#34 mode, and Windows User CALs can be applied. The name of the Per Server mode has not changed, and the rights associated with each of the modes have essentially not changed. Per Device or Per User mode is concerned with the total number of devices or users (or a combination of devices and users) accessing the server software across any number of servers, at any time. In this mode, you need a Windows CAL for every device or user that will be accessing Windows Server. In Per Device or Per User mode, only one Windows CAL is needed for any given device or user to access Windows Server, regardless of which servers it is accessing. Per Server mode is concerned with the number of concurrent connections to the server software. You need to purchase Windows CALs for the ...

 Beware October 25, 2003
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I couldn't get my hands on a copy of Windows 2003 Small Business Server, so I opted for installing Windows 2003 Server on my server. After wiping out Red Hat Linux, and installed without any major problems. After several hours of patching and applying hot fixes (and rebooting), I was up and running. However, I found 2003 Server unusable for my purposes (thankfully, I got an evaluation copy instead of the full, non-refundable version). I wanted to make it the primary domain server so I could manage my PC accounts better. I also wanted to make it a file server, email server and web server. Unfortunately that is where the problems started. Windows 2003 Server cannot be a Primary Domain Controller without Active Directory Services. Active Directory Services cannot run without DNS services. I ended up giving up and going back to Linux and Samba (which will act as an NT4 style PDC). Yes, 2003 does have a lot of features, but for users who like Win 2k and/or Linux, the benefits may not be worth it.

I would stay away from this product! I am running a dual Xeon 2.4 Ghz with 2 gigs of ram and a RAID 5 controller, and can't get the operating system to install, it simply locks up. There is no tech support for this product Microsoft says to go back to were you purchased it for support. Once you break the product seal there are no refunds. SO I am stuck with a $1,200 piece of software that doesn't work and still have to go out and purchase software that does. Your best bet is to not risk $1,200 that is usless. I have been working with computers since 1978 so I am no amateur to operating systems. Kent,

Despite what a lot of people are saying, Windows Server 2003 does have a lot of improvements over 2000. 2k3 boasts increased security, new features like shadow copy, a new version of SharePoint (soon), native .NET support, and a new version of IIS.

WIth all the Updates WIndows 2000 Server is a stable os and needs no upgrade to a costly new product like 2003 server.
Save your money and stick with what you have.
