Hi there,<br />
<br />
We have a SBS2000 machine that has 40 CALS. On the domain is also a 2000 server that runs terminal services. The terminal services licensing manager resides on the SBS box. Just in the last day, we can only get about 28 people to log on to the term serv box. Everyone else is refused connections. On the term serv box, and error appears saying License usage for a product licensed in per server mode has exceeded......etc&quot;. All clients are running 2000 or XP. Also getting an event ID 201 in the application log saying No licences are available. At the moment, the term serv box is licensed per-server. Should this be per-seat since all machines are 2000 or XP. Does anyone have any ideas why we would be running out of licenses? thanks for your help....<br />

Terminal Services Licensing Issue

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
