Shaun Ellis	Friday 31 October 2003 7:06:14 am Hi, I purchased a license for the online editor for my Exponential site. The site has 3 public access points (one.mysite.com, two.mysite.com, and three.mysite.com) for different user types (forcing all users to log in is out of the question). The 3 sites all share the same content, but use different templates to highlight info pertinent to each user type. Therefore, I only have one admin site for editing content. According to the license "A website is defined as two site accesses" and I need "one license per two site accesses". Since I have a total of four site accesses do I need to buy two licenses? Since I only have one admin site, then I would only be using one of the licenses, right? Please advise. Thanks, Shaun

Wonder about the answer of the ez crew (I think the spirit is about using the license for the same content where you have typically only a user and an admin siteaccess; it does not mean the same for using one database since you really can have as much sites as you want using a single database) But it is cheap, right? -paul eZ Publish, eZ Find, Solr expert consulting and training http://twitter.com/paulborgermans
