We are very much off topic here, but that is not exactly right. A CAL grants the right to access a server (or multiple servers) for file and print purposes. A terminal server license is what lifts the cap on the two remote users. And to complicate things further, there are terminal server CALs for clients actually using the terminal services enabled by the terminal server license!
