I replaced our PDC which was running Server 2000 with a new machine runnign Server 2003. &nbsp;All services were installed and configured including the license service.<br />
<br />
After the replacement our terminal server which is running Server 2000 ad is a member server started throwing the Event ID 213: &nbsp;replication of license information failed because license logging service on \\******* could not be contacted in the event logs.<br />
<br />
This is the only server throwing this error.<br />
<br />
I have veriffied that the new server is listed as the license logging server in Sites and Services in AD.<br />
<br />
I have verified that the licensing logging service is running on the PDC.<br />
<br />
I have verified that the terminal server can connect to the PDC.<br />
<br />
What changes can I make to correct this issue or is it OK to disable the license logging service on the terminal server?<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

Terminal Server has license logging error after replacement of PDC running license service?

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
