[cod] Off the wall Question

[Marcel de Haas]

I also know that there once was some licensing trick. You could only buy 
it OEM or needed some expensive licensing agreement.... But I'm not up 
to speed with the current licensing for Web Edition. I also believe it 
cannot join a domain, but that is probably not an issue since it's a 
system in (at least) a DMZ.

Cheers Haas
