Depends on what kind of license you have.

If you have retail licenses, the answer is "no".

If you have open business licenses, the answer is "maybe".

If you have open value licenses with SA, the answer is "yes".

If you have select or enterprise licenses, the answer is "yes".

Retail licenses shouldn't even install on TS.

Now, IANAL. Your best bet is to call microsoft.com/licensing, ask the question, 
record the answer for CYA, and then do it if the answer is the one you need.

Subject: Visio licensing and Win2k TS

All,

Wind2k3 domain...

We have a number of users with Visio on their laptops, and frequently
use it while connected to our SSL VPN, by copying the files back and
forth to the file server.

They want to have it installed on our Win2k TS box, because they often
work on the same documents, and don't want to drag the documents back
to the file server and overwrite what someone else has saved in the
interim.

I've done some cursory investigation, and can't find an answer to this question:

Is it feasible to install Visio on Win2k TS, and limit access to it to
staff (and I'm willing to maintain such a list manually, but would
prefer to do it through a group management facility of some sort) who
have Visio installed on their laptops?

Kurt
