Yes, you will have to connect to license server manually. Also, you will
periodically see an error message on the servers stating that it could not
find a TS License server.

Added the -nodc to that reg key.
Already had the DefaultLicenseServer key in CurrentControlSet (as well as
ControlSet001).
Started the service from the SERVICES icon.
And the service started! Yay! :-)
However, when I use the GUI to check for licenses, it fails to find a
license server. I had to manually connect to my TS server. Once I did that,
however, it did find all my license info properly.
So I think I will run this way, until I can DCPromo another Win2K server,
and install TS Licensing there, and transfer over the service.
Thanks a million; you guys are great. :-)

Try adding the -nodc to the ImagePath of the service
(HKLM\System\CCS\Services\TermServLicensing)
As far the DefaultLicenseServer, swap ControlSet001 with CurrentControlSet

I made a new value
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\TermService\Parameters\Defa
ultLicenseServer
Type is REG-SZ. Value is NetBIOS name of the server (i.e., ts-remote), not
the FQDN (i.e., ts-remote.mydomain.com).
I added "-nodc" to the START PARAMETERS line of the TERMINAL SERVICES
LICENSING service, and re-started the service.
Still fails with the same error 29, complaining that it needs to be on a DC.
And doesn't save the "-nodc" switch.
What am I missing? Win2K TS, SP4.

Modify the License Service and add the -nodc switch. Then you will be able
to start the TS License server.
You also need to set the DefaultLicenseServer key on each Terminal Server.

I am not moving to 2003, because that would require purchasing new licenses.
What do you mean, hard coding the license server? The license service will
not start, because it is currently on my TS server, which is only a member
server in my AD domain, and the license server will only run on a DC in the
domain.

Mike,
Don't know in your situation, but the problem goes away with 2003. I am
moving to a 2003 AD environment and have been told by Microsoft support
that I can leave my license servers where they are. The issue seems to be
with 2000 AD. Did you try hard coding the license server into the
registry. I have heard people say this is a workaround.

DCPromo-ing a Win2K TS Licensing Server

Please respond to
thin
I just upgraded my NT Domain to AD. I have a Win2K TS; this server had been
a member server in my NT domain. After the AD upgrade, the TS Licensing
stopped working, saying it could not locate a license server. Apparently,
the TS Licensing server must run on a DC, when you have an AD domain.
So apparently I need to either DCPromo my TS server, or transfer the TS
licensing service to a DC. Since I only have 1 DC (at the moment; haven't
built another one yet), I figure it's easier to just DCPromo the TS server.
I realize that will cause a reboot, and interrupt my guys; no problem.
My question - will I need to do anything else to get the licensing to work
again? I won't have to re-activate all my licenses all over again, will I?
Any help appreciated.
