Recommended Posts

I have Server 2003 with CALs.

 

If I aquire an additional licence of server 2008 but downgrade the

installation to 2003, are my 2003 CALs valid for the downgraded server?

I assume these are 2003 USER CALs. You do not need to upgrade to 2008 CALs

until the users start connecting to a 2008 OS.

 

I don't work for MS but I did stay at a Holiday in Express last night so the

answer is Yes.
