As far as I was aware all XP Professional PC connecting to a Win2000 Terminal Server already have a TS Client. Once connected a Licence is given.
If you are given a Temporary Licence under these circumstances once the temporary licence runs out you are meant to automatically receive a full licence when connected again. Else, for a temporary measure if you find the Temporary licence runs out you can do a registry hack on the client machine:- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MSLicencing In here click on the HardwareID folder and delete the ClientHWID entry on the right hand side Then Click the Store Folder and delete the entire LICENSExxx Folder. When the client reconnects they will get another temporary license but at least it give you a bit more time to figure things out.

You can't "reset" a license without uninstalling and reinstalling the license server service and calling Microsoft to re-activate your licenses. Licenses will be released on their own every 90 days (i think). - Robbie Kern, Tom wrote: >Quick question- >ii'm running term services in APP mode.
