According to the license management software description with the 5.01 OnLine tapes, the license manager counts each user name once, no matter how many sqlturbos are started. Page cleaners and Informix daemons do not count as "users" for licensing purposes. I have not gotten a clear answer from Informix on any of these items except for page cleaners and daemons. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jim Burks jburks@promus.com The Promus Companies Memphis, Tennessee, USA
