Terminal Server Issue
Hello,
We are using a Terminal Server (Windows 2000) and a License Server (Windows 2003) and we have a problem.
Any new pc that is trying to connect to the Terminal Server gets the new following message:
"The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the licensing protocol. Please try connecting to the remote computer again or contract your sever administrator"
At the same time, I see at the System Log of the Terminal Server's Event Viewer the following messages:
"Event Type: Warning

Event Category: None

The domain controller is Windows 2003 and that is where the Terminal Server Licensing is. Terminal Services are running on a Windows 2000 Server(not a domain controller).
When you attempt to connect to a remote computer using Remote Desktop on a Windows XP Professional Edition, you receive:
The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in licensing protocol.
To resolve this behavior, copy the below in notepad and save as rdmfix.bat
**************************
@echo off
setlocal
call :Quiet>nul 2>&1
set key=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOF
for /f "Tokens=*" %%a in ('REG QUERY %key%^|find /i "%key%\"') do (
@echo REG DELETE "%%a" /F
REG DELETE "%%a" /F
)
endlocal
goto :EOF
:Quiet
NET START TERMSERVICE
**************************
To fix this behavior:
1. Open a CMD.EXE window.
2. Type FixRDMSL.bat, or the fully qualified file name, and press Enter.
3. Shutdown and restart Windows XP.

It addresses a couple different issues that may be happening, including one that deals with the licensing mode. It seems that there's some confusion between a per-device license and a per-user license.
It also addresses an issue with Server 2003 SP1, but I'll assume you have SP2 installed.

Selva123: I did that but it didn't work...
Darrylka: We have SP2 installed. I looked at the article but it didn't help me solve my problem :(

First of all, did you try setting on the 2000 TS registry the IP address of the 2003 server where the TS licensing service is running?

Also for your last error:

This will have to be done on the 2003 box.

"Log on Locally" is a required user right in Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Terminal Server Edition and Windows 2000 Terminal Services. To modify the Group Policy Object for the domain controller, go to Administrative Tools>Domain Controller Security Policy>Security Settings>Local Policies>User Rights Assignment>Policy>Log on Locally>Add>Browse, click the appropriate group, and then click Add. After modifying the Group Policy, type secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy /enforce at a command prompt, press ENTER, and then press ENTER.
See if that doesn't help.
