Quick question about SP 2010 licensing.
Is it totally free?
Can I install onto a web facing server without any licenses and let anybody and everybody do stuff, are there limitations??
Thx 🙂
To run SharePoint 2010 Foundation as an Internet Facing deployment, you will need a full SQL Server license (license per CPU) if you do not use SQL Server Express, and you will need an Internet Connection License (or Windows Server External Connector depending on what they are calling it these days – its a license which basically forgoes the need for CALs for the server and IIS) for the server you are serving from, plus standard Windows Server licenses etc.
SharePoint 2010 Foundation itself does not need a license for Internet Facing deployment, but the services it relies on does.
