Henry,
I would exactly say its "effectively "Per Processor"" since the back ending
only applies if the usage is via anonymous access. For authenticated
access, you still require SBS CALs.
http://www.microsoft.com/WindowsServer2003/sbs/techinfo/overview/licensingfaq.mspx
Q. Can I use the SQL Server component for Web-based business
applications?
A. Yes, new with Windows Small Business Server 2003 is the ability for
you to use the SQL Server component for an unlimited number of
un-authenticated users. As long as you are un-authenticated, you also do not
need a Windows Small Business Server 2003 CAL.
Also, might want to look at the SBS EULA regarding it not being able to be
used for commercial hosting..
