I think this is a dumb question but I ask it.When I install SQLServer 2000 it asked for license per processor. For example I say it is for 5 processor. Now one computer which want to use it has dual C.P.U. Does that count tow in licening or two?
Mazdak, you get a license for each processor that the database server has and not for the clients. But do you really need a per processor license, or just CALs? Will a web server be connected to the database server or just internal client machines?

There is no web server. There is internal network in a company and there is a server and some clients. Doesn't that license limit number of clients or connections?
Per processor license means unlimited connections and is pricey if you aren't going to have a web site connected to the database server. What you want is a regular service license and some CALs.
