Hi Steve-
I know you already found the answer to this, but here's for posterity:
Going into compatibility mode breaks the program writing to the local
client's registry, which is required to use terminal server licensing.
So, setup everything to hit address 127.0.0.2 instead of just plain
localhost. No compatability mode, and everything should work just
fine.
Or, use the client I wrote to do everything! http://www.wissh.com
Thanks and good luck...
