Would I be right in thinking that your TS license server is on a DC
(since it's a 2000 license server)? You might want to move it and
therefore re-activate the license server, but other than that, it should
be fine. If your Citrix servers remain on 2000 server, moving to 2003 AD
doesn't change the licensing. A 2003 license server can issue TS CALS to
a 2000 server.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers

I am just worried about the TS licensing.  Any issues with that in a
W2k3 domain?

Hi Jonathan,

 

Shouldn't be a problem provided Win2K is patched to a reasonable level.

Good morning everyone, I have a client that is in a bit of a pickle.
They are currently running Windows 2000 AD and 5 - Windows 2000 Citrix
servers running Metaframe 1.8a.  They know they need to upgrade their
infrastructure.  The question is can we upgrade the active directory
domain to 2003 r2 and still maintain the citrix servers as they are?
Somehow I don't think we can do this.  Any thoughts or ideas would be
greatly appreciated.

 

Jonathan
