I thought about doing that and that may be the route I take. I was just
hoping for some way of assigning licenses and restricting others.

Of course if the other thing I thought of is if you are running Windows
2003 set the licensing to per user and you wont have to worry about running
out of licenses...per the below from...
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/mstsc_tshoot_lic.asp
Per User CALs are not monitored by Terminal Server. This means that even
though there is a Per User CAL in the license server database, the Per User
CAL is not decremented when it is used. This does not remove administrators
from EULA requirements to have a valid terminal server CAL for each user.
Failure to have a Per User CAL for each user, if Per Device CALs are not
being used, is a violation of the EULA.
Of course this doesn't actually stop people from taking a license it just
keeps you from having to really worry about it....

Pehaps you could do something with setting permissions on the TS licensing
key in the registry. You would have to deny everyone access to it probably
might work. Other thing you could do is use ipsec on the server or
firewall and block the workstations IP or TS ports to the server maybe?
