ArcPy License question

[EricO_Neal]

Is it permittable to serve up ArcPy based functionality through a web service from a machine that has ArcGIS Desktop installed (ie not using ArcServer)?   I know its not the best approach, but someone asked me and i would like to have some solid documentation either way.  I seem to remember that it is not permitted outside of ArcServer, at least it used to be?


Thanks

I'm not a licensing expert, but last I heard, I'm 99% sure that would be a violation of your license.
"Web GIS" must be done through ArcGIS for Server, using a Server license.
