I've been told it is ok as long as you can ensure that you can control
who accesses and who does not.  that was from a MS person at iForum
who seemed a little unprepared to answer the question.

My reseller sold me licenses this way and said they checked with MS
first.  I have it in writing so that is my recourse if I get in
trouble for it since the reseller is a "Platinum Partner".

Clear as mud right?
