the DC in this case is running W2k3; a W2k3 TS LS doesn't support terminal servers running W2k8 or later.

Thanks.<br />
Yes I knew that it had to be on a WS2008 machine.<br />
So is the consensus that it would be best on the WS2008 print server?

Hi,<br />
I am setting up a single RDS server (WS2008 R2) and wonder if the Licensing Server role can be on the same machine. I do have another WS2008 R2 which is a print server so it could be on that if necessary. At the moment the sole DC is WS2003.<br />
Thanks in advance.
