Nope, that would be the Terminal Services Licensing Service, different
beast

sorry to reply to my own email-
is the License server used by Windows to track cals, the same one that
is used for terminal services app mode?

i ask these questions because i demoted a dc that happened to be a
license server and about 3 weeks later i got event id 213 errors in my
app log on my pdc/rid/infra master and  some users were unable to log
into the domain.
in ad sites and services, the old dc is still listed with no ntds
object(i assume its still ther because a devloper installed msmq for AD
and never uninstalled it). i demoted it clean using dcpromo. no errors.
is the licensing server always a dc by default?
do the other dc's cache license info for a period of time so things
function for awhile even if they don't communicate with the master
license server? and if so, what is the time period?
i apologize for all the questions but i can't seem to find much in depth
info on this service from MS or google.

thanks
