You don't carry over the cals from the standalone servers.

I am about to embark on supporting a new customer. The customer has a dozen client computers on their network. The previous 'technician' was involved with bringing in two 2003 R2 standard servers, one for serving files and one for a LOB application.

Basically my customer is missing out on all the benefits of SBS. I plan on upgrading them to SBS 2003 R2 standard and out of this comes a licensing question. The two 2003 R2 servers each appear to have the original 5 CALS each (I need to do a little more checking to confirm this). If I move the file server to SBS 2003 R2 and its 5 CALS, how many CALS does the customer now own? 5, 10, 15?

Thanks
