Re: shut down license server portion?

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Some things aren't clear to me:

1) Which OS is your DC running, W2K or 2003?
2) Don't you use the W2K terminal server anymore? A W2K TS will not
be able to use the Per user licenses, it still needs Per Device TS
CALs.
3) Where is the 2003 LS with the Per User licenses running?
Although 2003 Per user licenses are not managed currently, the 2003
TS still needs to contact a 2003 LS.

Current setup:
Win 2000 term serv with clients accessing via machine for I/S
support personnel. Using DC as license manager/server.

New setup:
To allow our med staff to electronically sign, they need access
to term server (Win 2003). However, because they may access
from many different machines (home, office, etc.), we have
elected to purchase user licenses.

I understand the W2K3 TS ignores user licenses (and I have set
it up in "user license mode"), can I shut down the licensing on
the DC? Currently, the W2K3 TS sees this as a license server.
