Finding number of used CALs in AD and Exchange 2007
I have been asked to give an update on how many CALs are being used both for Active Directory as well as Exchange 2007 and I can't seem to find information on either of them on where I can find this information. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

unless you have installed a licence server and have kept it up to date, then the only way i can think is a manual count of mailboxes for exchange and users/computers for windows

Well, that I can deal with, I am just unsure of how to find how many have been purchased so far.
common problem...whilst Microsoft are very strict on licencing, they also take a trust approach...meaning that you are in charge of making sure you are up to scratch by keeping the certs etc.....though saying that, if they find your dodgy they will nail you lol! unless you have the licence certs, you probaby wont have much luck

Heh, well how am I supposed to know if the CALs used exceed the number purchased if I can't find the number purchased? Seems a little backwards.
