RE: read-only users

Hi,


All the logued users need some valid "user seats". Cf: the Jahia pricing 
page (http://www.jahia.org/pricing)


>*Active User = a user that is registered into the Jahia User Management

>**Passive User = a user that is registred into the Jahia User Management

So of course, if you try to register 394 users (with read, write or admin 
accesses) with a 125 users key, you will experience a problem ;-)

Cheers,
Stéphane

P.S: I thought Michel sent to you a new key file, didn't he?
