        Subject:        licensing costs


I am wondering if there is still a link out there that will allow us to
figure out licensing costs. Sure it's changed a half million times and
Tivoli has been consolidated into IBM but maybe someone knows where it is.
I

without a server license just because we don't want to punch a hole in the
firewall for backups.
