That is correct, thanks for the clarification.  My examples of "5",
were just that, examples.

We were as Scott.

Each client *TYPE* needs a license....

As Scott said, if you have 5 NetWare, 5 Windows and 5 Linux, you need
a
license per OS type....
I didn't think it was limited to 5 though...I was under the impression
for a given host, you need one license for the host, then 1 license
PER
client TYPE.

Ie, a vmware ESX host running linux with 10 linux VMs running would be
2
linux licenses.

A vmware ESX host running linux with 10 windows VMs would be 1 linux
and
1 windows, etc,
