Where is the info on the licensing. The last time I read the licensing info
on terminal services it made no mention of an internet connection license
for admin only configurations or any other configuration for that matter.
This is what microsofts FAQ has to say on the issue.
Q. What licenses are required to run Terminal Services in Windows
2000?
A. Three product licenses are associated with Terminal Services in
Windows 2000.
1.. Windows 2000 Server is required for hosting Terminal Services
sessions.
2.. A Windows 2000 CAL or a BackOffice� CAL is required to access
Windows 2000 Terminal Services and other basic network/application services
in the Windows 2000 operating system.
3.. A Windows 2000 Terminal Services CAL, a Windows 2000
Professional license or a Windows XP Professional license is required to run
applications on a Windows 2000 Server via Terminal Services.
Additionally, you are required to ensure that the applications you are
running on the terminal server are properly licensed. For instance,
Microsoft Office applications are licensed per-device. Each device that runs
Office via a terminal server must have a license for Microsoft Office.
I could not find a reference to the patch to allow file uploads. I did find
the 5.1 client but I have not yet tested it.
