Sounds like your users are logging in to the same Terminal Server from more
than one 
workstation.  TSE Cals are machine based not user based. Dave indicated the
identifying factor may be the machine name.  It might be on WIn9X, but it
also may be the SID on NT and Win2K.

Then, is this something I should be concern with?

As I understand it the machine itself is checked to see if it holds a =
CAL.
If it doesn't then one is issued (assuming non W2K or XP machines). You
could have a situation where CALS are issued to different machines but =
with
the same name.. especially if the name is really generic =
"W2KWRKSTATION".=20

You could prove that this is the case by doing some scripting on login =
to
obtain the machine name,IP address and the user name that they logged in
with (along with date and time) and write this to a log file. I'd keep =
the
size of the logfile small else it could slow down the login process. I =
do a
similar thing for our licensing people.=20

Are Terminal Server CAL's issued to clients based on their computer =
name. I
see multiple instances of CAL's issued to the same computer name on the
License Server? Is this correct?
