asked on The remote session was disconnected because there are no remote desktop license servers available I can logon from a different workstation
Server 2008
Windows 7 workstations.
I have about 20 computers logging on to the server via RDP.
On one workstation im getting this error.
We ran out of licenses and I had to revoke a license every now and again to allow a user to logon. I feel like this has something to do with it, and now the server won't issue this workstation a license.

These workstations are in remote locations now on the local network. I use a VPN so they can logon with the server name.

Maybe add an entry to the Windows hosts file so they can easier identify the server.
So if your server is called "server1" with IP "10.0.0.2", and the domain is called "domain.local", then you can add the following two entries to the hosts file:
10.0.0.2 server1
10.0.0.2 server1.domainl.local
The hosts file is located at "%windir%\system32\drivers
That might resolve the problem. Maybe check in the server if there is a DHCP lease for an existing computer that the server has issues a license to.

Figured it out myself.
All user profiles should remain intact (login as domain Administrator first).
