Re: SBS 2003 R2 10 User CALs License

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I did not know this would technically be a violation of the license. This
helps me clarify my understanding of RWW and RD.

When a mobile user logs in and accesses his or her desktop [provided we have
enough CALs for this user], this is also using Terminal Services. Right?
But they can do that. Right? This does not count towards one of the
Terminal Services Administrator licenses. Right?

Thanks, Ed Podowski

Thanks everyone,

This is a small businss server. There is not a separate terminal

Most of you said for administrative purposes. Does this mean when
someone signs in as administrator? Or does it mean anyone who signs
in to do administrative like task?

Yes, it means "administrative tasks". Signing in as a user with
administraive rights and doing non administrative tasks is technically a
license violation, and a *really bad* practice.



Is there away to add terminal server licenses to a SBS without adding
a physical/virtual server?

If no ternminal server is installed, then how do I terminate the
rogue users out there that are not really connected anymore?
[without booting the server]

Thank you,

The SBS box itself allows only 2 RDP connections for administrative
purposes. If this is a separate TS then it can be setup in
application mode with the appropriate number of TS CALs.

I keep on getting this message and I know I am the only one
accessing the server through remote web workplace.

"terminal srever has exceeded the number of allowed connections"

First how do I terminate the connections without booting the server?

Why doesn't it recognize the 10?

Thank you, Ed Podowski
