Resolved the counterfeit issue by completely reinstalling and reconfiguring everything.  Still receiving the deny error.

a couple of questions:<br />
are you able to login to the console on the server? are you sure the server hasn't somehow dropped its membership to the domain? <br />
<br />
The activation may possibly have something to do with it. <br />
Also, have you looked in the event viewer? are there are any pertinent errors showing up when a user tries to login? what about the event viewer on the client? <br />

Every account is receiving &quot;Access Denied&quot; &nbsp;on my Remote Desktop Services Server. &nbsp;All users were able to log on yesterday, now even the Admin account receives the error.. &nbsp;Nothing has changed with Local Security Policy or AD that I know of.<br />

Don't know if this is related, but the server's activation is now not valid and is asking for the key again. Message stating the software is counterfeit. &nbsp;We are using Volume Licensing.
