Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re:Licensing?
Dan,
As I read Oracle on this, your absolutely correct, you have to provide a 'name' for every person who can connect to the webserver. This also means that if John Doe is not using his license (like he's out sick today) then Jane Doe Can't use it. Your only "legal" solution in this case is Power Units. (Stinks, doesn't it!!)

I know we had a big discussion about licensing a few weeks ago, but, when Oracle says for a named user that if a multi-plexing machine can access the software, then the number of named users must be counted on the front end. Makes sense. So, if I follow this, they are saying that if I want to use iAS plugin for IIS, I have to count as named users everyone who can access that webserver. Is this the way everyone else reads this? I mean potentially, there could be as many as a couple of thousand and as few as one user accessing the webserver.
