Others already answered most of your questions. Regarding the KB the issue
happens when a client (Windows 2000) gets a temporary license from the 2003
licensing server and when this license should turn into a permanent one
(2000 TS CAL, per device) it does not as there is a bug on the product
listed. That is why a hotfix is required.

Subject: [THIN] 2003 TS license server and Windows 2000 Terminal Servers
Sorry to make everyone groan again ...
But i was wondering whether anyone clould clarify 2000 Terminal Services
running in 2003 Active Directory with 2003 license servers.
We have a 2003 Active Directory environment and are running Windows 2000
Terminal Servies.
I understand that:
1. I have to add windows 2000 TS cals to the 2003 License serve in order for
non windows 2000 and XP devices to connect.
2. I cannot use Per User Licenses for Windows 2000 Terminal Services users
3. Per user licenses are not tracked by the 2003 License server.
4. i am slightly confused after seeing the following Technet Article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=837211
Right at the bottom of the article it says:
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, install Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services
CALs on the Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services Licensing server. Client
computers can successfully upgrade from a temporary Windows Server 2003
Terminal Services CAL to a permanent Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services
CAL.
What it doesnt say is the type of Server 2003 TS Cals that should be added
per user or per device.
I read the good articles at www.brianmadden.com but they appear to cover my
scenario.
Thanks for you time.
