hi all,

This may not be the ideal forum for this question, but...

I have a server that has a couple of SQL Server 2005 tools installed - SQL Profiler and Management Studio. No database/integration services/analysis services/reporting services etc. In fact, in Windows Services, there are no SQL Server related services listed.

I don't need to pay for any SQL Server licensing for this server - correct?

Thanks, John

Well users using the SQL client tools must be licensed to use them through a CAL, Developer Edition license, or from the CPU licensing.
