That's by design. Per User licenses are currently unmanaged, which
means that the Per User TS CAL count will not be decremented. You
will have to keep track of the number of connecting users by hand.

Vera,
Yes, I didn't answer this in my first reply, I do have two
different machines, a license server, and the TS. I did make
the change last night from home, and was able to connect, so I
think I am good. One question I do have is that on the License
Server this morning, I went to lookat what it did to assign the
user CAL to me from last night ,and while the device CAL's show
who they are assigned to and when they will expire, the user
CAL's still show up as "non applicable", and that it hadn't
assigned a user CAL to me, but it did work for me last night.
Is that the way it works, or do I still have a configuration
issue.
Thanks,
Mike

Vera,
I see. I will check that in the morning. I assume that if I
save the mode as user CAL, my device CAL's will still work
normally, correct? Thanks for the reply.
Thanks,
Mike

You need to configure the licensing mode on the Terminal

You *do* have a separate Windows 2003 Terminal Server,
correct? You need one, because a SBS2003 server can only run
Remote Desktop for Administration, it cannot run Terminal
Services in multi-user mode. But an SBS2003 server *can* run
the 2003 TS Licensing Services to provide TS CALs for your
2003 Terminal Server.

Hi,
I have a SBS 2003 TS license server. I originally had 5
Device CAL's, and recently purchased 5 User CAL's, because
I need the flexibility of the user CAL. Anyway, I have
read on MS site that in order to use both types, you need
to change your licensing mode to user CAL mode. I think I
found where this is configured, which is "Admin tools | TS
Configuration | Server Settings. The only option I have is
"Remote Desktop for Administration" and there are no other
options. Am I in the right place, or do I need to look
somewhere else?
Thanks,
Mike
