Enable more than 3 user connecting using Remote Desktop in Win2k3 Server Std. without Terminal Server Licensing
Hi All,
At the moment I'm trying to figure out to no avail of how to enable remote desktop into a single Windows Server 2003 Std. which is stand alone (not join to the domain) ?
currently i can do 2x Administrator Remote Desktop + 1x Administrator Logon locally (in front of the Server). What I want is that to enable multiple local user to have access using Remote desktop into it.
I don't have and not planning to have a terminal server in place so I wonder if there is any solution for this ?
Any idea would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

OK, when I enabled the terminal server role, do i need to join the domain ?
because this machine will be deployed into a remote location which doesn't have AD on site?

it is just a small org. less than 60 users.
we are a Microsoft Registered Partner only and I know that we only had 10x additional CAL license certificate which I already installed in my office AD.
that is why I wonder if for this matter I can just install it on the test server and let my client use it without having to connect to my domain for Terminal Server gateway.

LOL, i didn't even knew about it :-) so it sounds like a Software flaw which can give us additional 120 days after the uninstall and restart.
thanks vikas.

You will be placing your client into a precarious position licensing wise.
It is unwise to circumvent licensing structures to meet a need.
If this is a client, then it is your job to provide a solution that meets legitimate licensing boundaries.
