FM Server Licensing Question

Confusion: I thought the five licenses I would be paying nearly $1,000 per year would cover this obvious use-case. Based on my emails with FM "sales" yesterday, I appear to be mistaken.

I have hundreds of clients who access my MariaDB and SQL Server databases. No issues whatsoever. I've only ever run into a brick wall with FMS licensing. Nobody seems to know exactly what the terms are for basic use cases.

I appreciate your thoughtful reply.

Thank you.
