Background:
We're running a mix of Win2k and Win95 workstations.
Paid for and installed 5 TS Client licences (to cater for the older machines). Did a lot of testing with used PCs (to get hands-on experience about speed and such) and now all licences have been replaced by temporary ones. Didn't matter much until one day one of the workstations didn't connect to TS. The Server (Win2k) was sporting SP2 plus some hotfixes, so on suggestion from Microsoft I installed SP3 and got the client licences re-activated by phone.
Question:
How would I know that the re-activation really worked?
They told me, that I had to wait until the temporary licences would have expired, and then the others would show up one by one. In contrary to that, the machine which was denied access to begin with, is now able to open a TS session, but still only with a _temporary_ licence (which on top of all is valid less than 60 days)!
Thanks, Martin
