CAL license Question

If I have a client that is connecting to a report generated by an SQL server
on a web site, does the workstation that is connecting to the web page need
a CAL?.
I would not think so, as the server is doing all of the connecting to the da
tabase, and the client workstation is only viewing the data that was parsed
on the server into the report.
Thanks,You need a processor license.

t instance?
Also if I have a four node cluster, do I need to have a copy of SQL for each
server in the cluster?
Thanks,
