Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Terminal Services / May 2004Terminal Services temporary client liense
I have Win2003 server, when I installed terminal server few months ago, from add and removed program, click windows component, I check Terminal server and terminal server licensing, then I realized that I do not need the terminal server licensing, so I uncheck again, now everday when I use terminal server client from my XP workstation, it gave me the error message " Your terminal services temporary client liense will expired 7 days, please contact your system administrator". next day will say " ....will expired 6 days", what should I do ? Need help, thanks a lots. Lillian You should install and activate the TS Licensing Services, and then purchase and install TS CALs. Why did you "realized that I do not need the terminal server licensing"??? Aaaaah, now I get it, maybe you only want Remote Desktop for Administration, with 2 free connections, without licensing requirements? If that is what you want, then you should not have installed Terminal Services at all. TS implies "Application Server" mode, so uninstall it again. Remote Desktop for Administration is pre- installed, you only have to enable it in System - Remote, just like on XP.

Lillian >-----Original Message----- >You should install and activate the TS Licensing Services, and [quoted text clipped - 30 lines] >> Lillian >. Regarding licensing: W2K Pro and XP Pro clients connecting to a W2K TS receive a free TS CAL from the Licensing Server. *No* clients connecting to a Windows 2003 TS receive a free TS CAL. You can apply for a free transition TS CAL for every XP Pro desktop that you owned on the date of release of Windows 2003: 24 April 2003. I would read the following carefully, because you also have to understand the difference between "Per User" and "Per Device" licenses (for both 2003 server CALs and 2003 TS CALs) in order to buy the type that is most profitable in your organisation: Windows Server 2003 Pricing and Licensing FAQ http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/licensing/pric licfaq.mspx Terminal Server CAL Transition Plan FAQ http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/licensing/tsca ltransfaq.mspx -- Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server http://hem.fyristorg.com/vera/IT --- please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email --- > When I was using NT2000 server with Terminal server > client, I did not have installed TS CALS, what different [quoted text clipped - 48 lines] >>> >>> Lillian Vera: I installed Terminal server client on different XP and windows 2000 professional machine, and they both can terminal server into my windows 2003 server, no error like " Your terminal services temporary client liense will expired 3 days,please contact your system administrator". so it'something on my XP machine, so I uninstall Terminal server client from add and removed program, reboot the machine then reinstall again, still have same error, where is the terminal server licensing on the registry ? any idea? I even use "Remote desktop" connect to windows 2003 server still have same error, any idea? Thanks.

Lilian, removing the temporary license from the client will not help you. In fact, it will cause you to loose the last 3 days of your temporary license. The fact that the other clients don't show this warning is completely logical, since they just received their temporary license, and will be able to connect with it for 90 days. Then they will receive the same warning, and eventually be refused to connect. There is *no* way that you can connect with any client to a 2003 TS without a 2003 TS Licensing Server, which has 2003 TS CALs installed on it, for longer than 90 days. Did you ever read the FAQ I mentioned? -- Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server http://hem.fyristorg.com/vera/IT --- please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email --- > Vera: > [quoted text clipped - 111 lines] >>>>> >>>>> Lillian Vera: Yes, I read TWO FAQ you sent it to me, but can not get there, page not found, Terminal Server CAL Transition Plan FAQ >>http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/lice n sing/tscaltransfaq.mspx and Windows Server 2003 Pricing and Licensing FAQ http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/howtobuy/licen sing/priclicfaq.mspx. yesterday I try to use remote desktop connect to win2003 server gave me same error, I thought you mentioned to me is free for XP machine, I just want Remote Desktop for Administration, with 2 free connections, without licensing requirements? that all I want.

OK, if remote administration is the only thing you want, then I've answered your question already in my first reply: >>>>>> Aaaaah, now I get it, maybe you only want Remote >>>>>> Desktop for Administration, with 2 free connections, [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >>>>>> installed, you only have to enable it in System - >>>>>> Remote, just like on XP. -- Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server http://hem.fyristorg.com/vera/IT --- please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email --- > Vera: > [quoted text clipped - 177 lines] >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Lillian Vera: I know terminal server gave each workstation 90 days to connect, if login to different workstation then I don't see the error message, so somehow in windows 2003 server register my workstation connection coming through, but the funny things is when I use Remote Desktop connection from XP machine then I still see those error message, now it say" Your terminal services temporary client will expire in 3 days, please contact your system administrator to get a permanent liense", so next Monday when I come to work, will down to 2 days, then 1 day, then would I able to use Remote Desktop with the expire message?

Lillian, Sorry, but I give up. I have already explained why a new workstation will not give you the warning (yet). I have also explained twice that you have to uninstall Terminal Services, since you only want Remote Desktop for Administration. I don't know how to explain this better, without repeating myself once more. And no, you will not be able to connect from this workstation when the count-down has reached zero days. The only solutions is to uninstall Terminal Services from the server and use only Remote Desktop, or buy and install licenses if you want Terminal Services. -- Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server http://hem.fyristorg.com/vera/IT --- please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email --- <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in news:149b701c444ee $fb039e00$a501280a@phx.gbl: > Vera: > [quoted text clipped - 247 lines] >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Lillian Vera: I use terminal server client login to different NT2000 server without any problem, no error, so it look like something between NT2003 account on my username, but where is those? somekind of local policy?
