Mike,

The licensing screen shows three licensing tpyes'

1. windows2000 builtin for all w2k / winxp workstations etc.
2. client access licenses for all other OS's
3. temporary client access licenses for if the licenses under .2 are all
used.

You can't reset them or reissue them.
If you've installed the hotdix / SP3 on all server using the tslic they
will expire in a number of days.
Else you have to call M$ to get them reissued....no big deal they're
used to it.

Grx
Rob

Onderwerp: [THIN] W2k Licenses will Expire event log messages




I'm getting event log messages on my terminal server (w2k, sp2 (rolled =
back from sp3 due to printing issues), Citrix XP) warning that client =
license(s)
will soon expire.  It was an informational event, and I've been busy =
until today mopping up the Error events, so I just noticed them:

"Terminal Services Warning : Your terminal services temporary client =
license will expire in 9 days. Please contact your system administrator
to get a permanent license"

I've checked our License server (W2k,Sp3), and it shows a status of
Activated, for my license server, and has three entries that say =
"Windows 2000 Terminal Services Client Access Licenses" with various
licenses attached, all of which show issued. =20

There is also line for "Temporary Licenses for Windows 2000 Terminal
Services", that shows several licenses issued.

The puzzling parts: =20
        Only three out of all of the licenses (18 total), show an
expiration date. =20
        A few machines show up as having been issued multiple licenses.
        A lot of the licenses show issue dates in June/July of this
year, I thought=20
                they expired/reissued every 90 days or so.
        Several licenses are issued to "Unknown".  The number issued to
Unknown roughly
                corresponds to the number of WinTerms I have, so I think
these are OK,
                although, they are all issued back in June/July with no
expiration


How can I free up those duplicate licenses?  Is there an easy way to =
"reset" the licenses and have them all reissued?


Thanks in advance for any help,
