Extra Licenses needed for the S/W that VNC Server gives accessto ?

[Matthew C. Grab]

Look at it this way,

Imagine you added a keyboard cable splitter, and a mouse cable splitter,
and a video cable splitter to your NT box, so that now you had 2
keyboards, 2 mice, and 2 monitors.  Both monitors would show the same
thing, both mice would move the same onscreen pointer, and both monitors
would show the same thing.  If you placed this second set on the desk
next to the second set, then could 2 people use the same software at the
same time?

No additional licenses needed as per your setup.  (Unix might be a
different story).
