 That is helpful, what OS and service pack are you running?

HI Matthew,

This key DOES exist on my TSLicensing server.

Hope this helps

Yes that really does help. I did contact them and thought it was working
however I don't see my licenses showing and it is showing the wrong license
mode Per Device. I have Per User licensing.



I found article http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=834651 that talks about
TS License server switching to a invalid mode. I checked the registry path
it talks about to confirm the mode and I found that the key "*PolicyAcOn*"
doesn't exist. Could someone be so kind as to let me know if it exists on
their TS license server?



Thank you,

No problem.  We just went through this very similar thing when we moved
our TS Lic server from Win2k to Win2k3.  We were using temp licenses until
we fixed it.



The key is to check your license certificate (if printed or you may have
to go to eopen website to find it or them).  Once you have a good
understanding of what you own (per device or per user or both) THEN you
should contact MS again (sometimes this is done via Telephone and sometimes
it can be done online - your lic server should be configured one way or the
other - when you go to license it, it will show you which mode you are
using).  When you contact MS they will ask for per user or per device and
how many you own.  Then they will give you a code that will lic you for that
particular type and number of licenses.



Hope this helps,

I did call Microsoft clearing house and thought I did what you're
describing. However my Licensing looks odd to me (see screen shot).



First of all the licensing is showing Per Device CAL but I'm supposed to
be in Per User CAL. My hope is that the 20 Per Device CAL are migrated
Windows 2000 licenses. However shouldn't I show the 55 Per User CALs that I
own?



Sorry for the lack of understanding but I'm lost with this TS Licensing on
2003.

Did you upgrade your TS licenses for TS 2003?  When you move from win2k or
winnt TS Lic server you have to upgrade the licenses with Microsoft.  This
may not cost you anything, usually just a phone call or online form with
microsoft.  they will give you a code to key into your lic server which will
activate 2003 licenses for TS.  Then your PS4 servers should be licensed.

I recently installed two new PS4 servers on Windows 2003. I moved and
upgraded the Terminal Server licensing server to Windows 2003. Everything so
far is working ok except I noticed that we have been receiving an error on
each Windows 2003 PS4 server but not the TS license server. Older Windows
2000 servers are not showing an error in there event logs.



*Event ID 1009*

*The terminal server licensing grace period is about to expire on
12/29/2006 and the service has not registered with a license server with
installed licenses.  A terminal server license server is required for
continuous operation.  A terminal server can operate without a license
server for 120 days after initial start up.*



I've done some searching on google.com and found KB885013 but this does
not apply as it specifically says the error should be on the TS License
server.



Has anyone had this before? How can I confirm that my licensing will work
and not expire after 120 days?



Thank you,
