If a user has "full" access to the system, by that it means a shell account, a 1-16 user license means 16 users. If a user does not have "full" access to the system, by that it means a user does not have shell account and uses the BSDI system as a gateway for mail (via smtp), www, a 1-16 user license means 1-160 logical users? Therefore, a 1-16 user license is sufficient for an organisation of 100 users using the BSDI Internet server as a gateway for SMTP and WWW traffic.
