Re: Unable to active TS

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

You need both a CAL and a TS CAL for every connecting user or
client. Note that CALs and TS CALs are *not* counted by concurrent
usage!

For the choice between Per User or Per Device CALs and TS CALs:
simply count if you have more users than clients (several users
share client devices), or vice versa (users connect from multiple
client devices). Then choose the license type which is best for
you.

Thanks for the advise,

Ok, now I had a case with different the following scenario:
I have two servers name server01 for the first one and server02
for the second one and both of them installed with windows
server 2003. The server01 is DC server(window.com).The server02
is installed and configured with CITRIX ACCESS Suite
4.0,terminal server and act as application server which contains
of MS Office,Sql,etc.The server02 is also joining or become a
domain member of server01(server02.window.com). My question is
how many CAL's and TS CAL are required if suppose there were 20
users will be accessing the server02 and which type of CAL's and
TS CAL's most suitable for my company
Thanks and looking forward to have your reply soon

Cheers.

This is by design.
The W2K TS Licensing Service *must* run on a Domain Controller.
Only exception is when the server is a standalone server in a
workgroup, or a member of a NT4 domain.

If you check the EventLog on the server, you will see the
following Events:

Event ID 29
Terminal Services Licensing can only be run on Domain
Controllers or Server in a Workgroup. See Terminal Server
Licensing help topic for more information.

Event ID 7024
The Terminal Services Licensing service terminated with
service- specific error 29.

Is documented here:
277917 - Terminal Server Licensing Service Failure
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=277917

You will have to uninstall the TS Licensing service from the
W2K server, install the TS Licensing Service on your 2003 DC.
If you don't have any purchased licenses, that's all you have
to do. If you have down-level clients, which need a purchased
TS CAL, you'll have to phone the Clearinghouse to get your
licenses re- issued for installation on the new LS.

Hi guys,

I got the problem with TS activation for the following
scenario. Here's the problem:
I have two servers ,the first one (Name Server) installed
with windows server 2003 Enterprise Edition R2 and acting as
DC(server.win2003.com) and the other one (name win2000)
installed with windows server 2000 advance edition (SP3)
(WORKGROUP) and act as terminal server,thus it had terminal
service licensing ( has not been activated). I joined the
second one into the first one domain so it became
win2000.win2003.com. When I tried to activate the terminal
service licensing on the second server, the activate server
option is disabled (grey out) or not allow me to do so..
can Anyone help ? advise ? it would be greatly appreciated
for any help and thank you for all of you in advance
Cheers,

Thomas
