Hi,<br />
We have a domain that we want to add a server to, to function as a terminal server. <br />
<br />
To my understanding, you only need one operating system CAL per user, regardless of the number of servers, right? &nbsp;So for instance, i have 3x Windows server 2008 servers, and 15 users, i only need 15 user CALS, not 15x3=45, right?<br />
<br />
Also, I do know for the terminal server that those are DIFFERENT CALs, so if 5 users are terminal server users, i would just need to purchase a 5pk of terminal server CALs, that's it, right?
