Terminal Services Licensing Server Problem
I have been running a Terminal Services machine for over 3 years now with no issues. It was it's own licensing server and it is setup as my enterprise licensing server.
I just setup a secondary server and I want it to use the original as it's licensing server. I think I have it setup correctly, but for some reason it is still giving me the error that I do not have enough client access licenses. I have 70 licenses and at most, I've only used 50 at a time.
The only things I have done to set it to the correct licensing server is to set it on the new machine in the TS configuration mmc.
Is there anything else I should be doing?

Well, that seems to have fixed it. Thanks!
To select a specific license server, locate the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\
Add the following value:
Name: DefaultLicenseServer
Data type: REG_SZ
Data value: ServerName
Substitute the NetBIOS name of the appropriate license server for ServerName. If the license server is located on a remote subnet, make sure the Terminal Services-based computer can resolve the NetBIOS name.
