You have IP connectivity from the sounds of things, so it's not that. There are two suggestions that I can think of at the moment: If this is happening on only one or two clients, go through and delete their registry keys for their TS license: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MSLicensing If this is happening on a lot of clients then it's probably something with the server: 1) Go through and set the registry keys to specify your licensing server. Links: 2) From the sounds of things (And don't ask me why) it sounds like your licensing DB is corrupt. Uninstall TS licensing server, delete it's directory (%systemroot%\system32\lserver) , reinstall TS licensing and re-activate your licenses from MS. There is no charge to do this, and no problems from MS's side in doing so. 2009/10/12 alan tropper <alan.tropper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Sorry guys and gals, twice in one day!! > > > > I have an issue with terminal services licenses where we have remote > domains that have a Win2003 DC and a Win2003 Terminal Server.
