@Obsolesce Veterinary, but yes, same concept.
It does say for internal purposes as well, so I would buy the argument that I can be use commercially. But the buck stops at the specifically enumerated services that are acceptable.

We've gone through plenty of audits where QuickBooks has a company file on one PC while there are two or more other PCs accessing that company file. No issues there.

Historically, QuickBooks has only used file sharing for this. The remote users are opening the QuickBooks data file over the network. This matches the restrictions last I knew.

AVImark is connecting to a database server running on the host computer to my understanding. This is not file services, print services, IIS, or ICS.

I added to my post above.

Their system specifications clarify exactly what their setup is and does. The small setup is peer to peer. No server OS required.

RTFM

No Manual is going to override MS Licensing.

What AVImark says doesn't matter so discussing it is silly. I could care less what their hardware specs say.

AVImark now requires Guardian to be running which takes it beyond file sharing. End of story.

I have talked to many Microsoft licensing specialists and they agree.

One clinic that believes that they can run Windows desktop with AVImark is the subject of a Microsoft Audit because of that. Yes, I have first-hand knowledge of this. AVImark is not going to pay for their legal defense. I promise you that.

Easy to tell VMWare adios!
