SUMMARY

As stated in the Microsoft License Agreement that ships with SNA Server, the 3270 and 5250 terminal emulation applets and the ODBC/DRDA driver provided with SNA Server are licensed for use only by one user per licensed SNA Server. Licenses for additional users must be acquired separately from NetManage or StarQuest, as described below.

MORE INFORMATION

The 3270 and 5250 emulation applets are provided with SNA Server so that customers can perform basic connectivity testing. However, the SNA Server license agreement only allows an applet to be used on a single desktop. A single desktop may use either applet for demonstration, testing, or production use.
