Thanks to everybody for your mails and all your help. I really, really apreciated.

Your reply works fine if you're trying to prevent users in connecting to different database servers. Now, the thing is how to prevent users to work with different instances of the same database on one server. You can make Exact instances of a database (with the same server name, users, passwords, roles... and everything else) .My app is licensed on a per item basis. That is, you pay according to the number of items the app can handle. So, what I'm trying to do is prevent a user that purchases a 10 item license to create 3 different instances of the same database and end up handling 10 x 3 = 30 items. The issue is how to tie up the license to a database instance to prevent illegal use of the software.

i dont know how to do this....please help me!

thaaaanks in advance.
