Meaning that Microsoft would like to see you purchasing a TS CAL for each of your PC's, right?

XP and Win2k do not require a license but if you connect via any other means (Win98, Thinclient etc...) A license is required.

It is not concurrent. We have it here and if a machine logs on, one of those licenses is assigned to that machine. If there are no licenses available, a machine is granted a temporary license; which I believe is good for 30 days. You are correct, though, in that W2K and XP Pro have builtin licenses. This changes with Windows 2003, though. Those W2K and XP clients that already have licenses will be "grandfathered" in, but any new ones will require a purchased license. For more information on TS licensing and TS in general, you may wish to post to the TS newsgroup, microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services at news.microsoft.com. It's an excellent resource for term serv.

Apparently, Win2k pro and XP pro clients can connect to terminal services without having to have a terminal services CAL, they just need to have actual Win2K server CALs in place. Sorry to bother the list with this, but I really just need confirmation of this info. Thanks, Matt -----Original Message----- From: Matt Hoffman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 8:31 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: Terminal Server Licensing HI, I'm trying to get a grasp on TS CAL licensing with Win2K server. I've done some research on this, and from what I can tell: 1. If you buy, say, 15 licenses, then you can have 15 concurrent connections to your server. 2. Those 15 licenses are available to any client so long as the license is not being currently used by another client. 3. You do not have to purchase a CAL for every client that could potentially connect. 4. MS's licensing server handles the requests for the CALs. Does all of this sound correct? If there's anything more that I really ought to know that anyone can pass on, it would be greatly appreciated.
