Required Licensing for Windows OS Running SQL Server 2005?

Another licensing question: if I get SQL Server 2005 standard edition with
two device CALs, and I run this on Windows 2003 Server standard edition, do
I need to match one for one the CALs on the OS and the application? In my
example, would I need two device CALs for the OS, even though my devices are
not accessing the server's file system, or using the server for any
application other than SQL?
