Not sure if this applies to PS3, but with XPe, you had to manually set up
the local policy to allow users other than administrators to log on
remotely.  (This was not the case with XPe on W2K)

If you haven't activated your citrix licenses, then you are only allowed 2
admin logons, and you'll get a pop-up ever once and a while about product
activation.

You can logon to TS without as MS-TS License server, for 90 days without any
problems.  So I'm guess it's got to do with permissions to logon remotely.
