enterprise manager cost?

I need to put enterprise mgr on a desktop at my office to administer a sql
server database that I am renting from a hosting service. The server is
shared at the hosting site and I pay only the monthly 39.00 for that right.
Do I have to buy enterprise manager to be legal. If so any idea how much it
would cost for a single processor, one user desktop computer?
thanks, leonThis one is tricky. For properly licensed copies of SQL Server
installations, which I am assuming your host has done on your behalf, there
is no additional charge for the installation nor use of the client-side
tools. However, it is unlikely that you will have port 1433 outbound open
on your company's firewall nor will the host likely have port 1433 inbound
opened to the SQL Server installation.
Normally, the host will provide terminal server sessions, in which case you
would use the remote installation of the client tools.
Sincerely,
Anthony Thomas

I orginally thought they would allow me to access through ts also but said I
would just be allowed to access that particular database which makes sense if
there are other people's databases on the server they wouldn't want to give
me access to the whole server.
I think I am just going to be given a domain.server name and once hooked up
only that database would appear because that is all I would have rights to.
I also don't think they are going to give me access to their copy of
Enterprise manager from there disk I will just be expected to provide it.
I found one company that offers an product to access from www.teratrax.com
but I am used to sql server tools and need the dts packages.

That wouldn't work legally.
You can use the SQL Server Web Administrator from MS without any
licensing requirements. I don't know that the ASP license for SQL Server
(what the ISP probably has) allows distribution of client tools. The web
data administrator should allow you to administer SQL Server from your
web browser.

license for SQL Server though - don't think there is such a
thing. See the link referenced for options - there are some
licensing explanations for the different options.
