wrote:> the developer edition is made free and unlocked > for only 1 Machine 1 domain use - no session > limitationsThis is news to me! The last time I checked the Developer Edition had a limit of three concurrent sessions, and once you hit that limit you were forced to restart webdna -- because it wouldn't clear the "concurrent session counter" until the engine was restarted.So when did they make this change to a unlimited session Developer Edition???Sincerely, Kenneth Grome On 08 May 2006 11:00:00 +1000, Marko Bernyk wrote:> LOL...
