I have 2 similar scenarios , only difference being the platforms and the user base.
Scenario 1:
We have a domino server running on as 400 with 30 users. Now 5 of them want to use Lotus Traveler.
Scenario 2:
I have a client that is running domino on the iSeries and has over 6000 users but 35 of those 6000 users want to use Traveler as they have windows mobile phones.
In both these scenarios, I would need to setup a domino server to just run Lotus Traveler . This is being done since traveler only runs on Wintel and will NOT run on either AS400 or the i Series.
Question:
Do I need a new domino server license for this domino server that just hosts the Lotus Traveler functionality?
If I do then this is going to be one really expensive solution.

After a bit of research I have found that the Small Business licensing is probably the best as it will move all of our pricing to a per client model found under Small Business rather than Messaging. Then, as Jason C. says, all the servers are free (as long as they are NOT clustered). Domino Server 8.5 is available from DeveloperWorks for a ninety day free trial. Lotus Traveler is available to all licensed Domino Server users for free from the Passport Advantage site.
I was under the impression that IBM changed the licensing structure some time ago, and that your licensing is now based on number of users, instead of servers....meaning that no, you could add 100 more servers, and not need additional licenses, provided you weren't adding users.
Of course, you'll still need to purchase the license for 2003 server, or whatever platform you run Traveler on.
