What do I do with all the licenses we already have?  I am guessing, call M$
and have them reissue for use on the new licensing server, or according to
your note, I can leave it on the current server, and just make the setting
change?

Ahhh get your self a 2003 License server and have it distribute licenses
(doesn't have to be on a DC and can do 2000 CALs 0

 

Or as one of my guys showed me today set this setting and you can get around
the 2000 License server having to be on a DC

 

You can modify the Windows 2000 Terminal Services License Server service so
that it will run on Windows 2000 member servers in a Windows 2000 domain. To
do so, use Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe) to locate the ImagePath value in
the following registry key: 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TermServLicensing

Modify the ImagePath value to "%SystemRoot%\System32\lserver.exe -nodc"
(without the quotation marks), and then quit Registry Editor.

The typical Windows 2000 Terminal Services Licensing Discovery process that
is used by Windows 2000 Terminal Servers does not detect member servers that
are configured to run Terminal Services Licensing with the "-nodc" (without
the quotation marks) switch.

The discovery process enumerates and queries domain controllers in the
enterprise, and does not query a member server to determine if Terminal
Services Licensing is installed.

Subject: [THIN] Licensing server move

 

So when we go to AD, I need to move my licensing server from it's current
server location, to an AD DC, correct?

 

How difficult is that.  What is the process?
