Changing Licensing mode of SQL server

Hi All
Please can someone tell me if there is a way of changing the Licensing mode
of SQL Server 2000 from Device/User CALs to a Single CPU License mode ?
I ask because I am currently running Windows SBS 2000 and want to use the
SBS Migration Pack to split it down to the separate packages. And from what
I can see all the packages, including SQL server, are put in Device/User CAL
licensing more with 5 CALs (although I could be wrong!).
I need around 50+ CALs. So it would be cheaper to go for a Single CPU
license rather than all those CALs !
Any advice or suggestions much appreciated.
Benny
