Correct, you did not have to activate the license, since with volume
licensing there is no activation. You have to show proof of purchase by that
date.

That would be licenses activated before April, 24st. 2003, for automatic
upgrading via their website (see
http://licensecode.one.microsoft.com/transition/ ), while the transition
plan talkes about owned licenses (not necessairly activated in my opinion).

Yes, that is correct. Windows Server 2003 Terminal Server licenses are
separate from 2000 CALs. 

 

Additionally, Windows XP Professional and Windows 2000 Professional do not
need a license to connect to a Windows 2000 Terminal server in Application
mode, the license is inherent. But in Windows Server 2003 Terminal Server
mode, only Windows XP Professional licenses purchased before April 24, 2003
I believe are eligible for a free license to Windows Server 2003 Terminal
Server mode. Otherwise, a separate Windows Server 2003 Terminal Services CAL
must be obtained.

Hi all...I realize this is not exchange specific...I'm hoping someone can
give me a hand on this though...

 

This office is fairly small....30 or so users

Primary server is our DC - taking care of DNS/DHCP/WINS/File storage et c

We have a 2003 Member server running terminal services....

 

Mind you I came into this office after the fact of them installing all of
this stuff...

 

I got a report this morning that their temporary terminal service license is
almost expired and proceeded to check the ts licensing on the 2003 server

 

The Windows 2000 server is running the terminal server licensing it appears
and I see an 5 user open license for "Windows 2000 Server - Terminal
Services CAL Token (per-device)"

 

Now I'm assuming this here is the issue since the 2000 server has 2000 CALs
installed and not 2003.  Can someone please confirm the validity in this?
Or are all 2000/2003 ts CALs the same?

 

 

Thank you in advance,

Devin McBride
