Licensing and Installation of Client Tools Only for MSSQL 2000

| Does each workstation installation of the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard
Edition "client tools," i.e. Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer, Profiler,
require a separate CAL/license, etc.? This is strictly for administrative
purposes only -- we want to install the "client tools" on the workstations of
database administrators who serve as emergency backup for the senior
Microsoft DBA in case of his absence.
Thank you in advance for a definitive response that I can forward to our
license compliance unit.

If you have CALs then I would think you would need a CAL for each
installation of the client tools. If you're CPU licensed, then you should be
OK. All licensing questions should be directed to Microsoft for
clarification.

Thank you for your response. I have taken your advice and put in a request
for clarification with Microsoft. I will post their "official" response.
