Devin,
 
Here is a link that will help you with TS Licensing.  
http://www.brianmadden.com/content/content.asp?ID=154
 
As far as XP goes, I belive that if the OS was purchased after April 23, 2003, 
then you will need to buy TS Licenses for those machines due to when MS came 
out with Server 2003.  Prior to this date the TSCal was built into XP.
 
Good Luck ...

        Was hoping someone could give me a hand with this issue I'm having as 
I'm not quite sure where to go at this point...
         
        We have a TS server in per device mode with 3-4 Win98 computers and the 
remaining 8 computers being XP Pro
         
        My understanding is that XP Pro comes with a TS Cal...therefor we would 
not need to buy extra permanent licenses to cover these stations - and I was 
told if looking in Terminal Server Licensing, the XP Pro machines shouldnt even 
take one of the permanent licenses...
         
        We are running into an issue now though where the server will tell 
users that their temporary license is about to expire.  We do have a block of 5 
perment licenses which we bought through the open license program
         
        Can someone please enlighten me as to what I am not understanding 
correctly and possible give me a lead on where I should be looking?  I've tried 
calling up the MS Server Down phone contact and he was a bit unsure, not 
necessarily because we have everything setup correctly, but moreso because he 
wasnt extremely knowledgeable on TS itself.  He directed me to call the MS 
Clearing House to activate more licenses, but that kind of defeats the purpose 
if we dont need to activate more licenses to begin with.  Again, I'm not sure - 
I may be understanding this very incorrectly.
         
        Any help would be greatly appreciated.
         
        Thanks much in advance.
        Devin McBride
