Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Terminal Services / October 2004TS client licencing issue
Hello All, If I have 1 server running TS in app mode. Can I use it without getting any licenses? (using the 5 user lic that comes with it) If so, can I put say Office on the server, and let 5 user access it without buying 5 office licenses? Is this legal, or do I have to purchase TS & Office licenses to be in compliance. I want to do this the legal way. Thanks for any input. MMJII I'm not sure about the Office licenses but you can use TS in app mode without licenses for 120 days. Mike D > Hello All, > If I have 1 server running TS in app mode.

After that, you must have a Licensing Server installed and activated and you must have TS CALs. How many and which type depends on the version of the OS, both on the server and the clients. Regarding Office: no, you need a Office license for every device that runs Office, and it doeasn't matter if Office is installed locally on the client or run in an rdp session.
