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.
