Reinstalling Terminal Services for multiple user access 1

[goitc]

I have a Windows 2003 Web Server edition running Terminal Services but it was installed in Administrative mode which allows only two user. How can I get it into the other mode which is multi user and which Windows OSs have a licence built in to access terminal services?
Thanks

2nd question first.

Unlike W2K no o/s has a built in W2003 TS CAL. You'll have to pay MS for each user / device that connects to TS whatever they are running.
There is a slight exception I believe for W2K and XP clients bought before a certain date. But you have to prove it to MS to get license codes. It's all on their site somewhere.

If you have installed TS as a server role or using add/remove programs then you should have full TS. Unlike W2K W2003 provides a TS admin mode through remote desktop which is installed by default.

If you have installed the full TS however you do need to point it to a TS license server on a DC somewhere. If you don't then it will default to admin only through RDP. Check your event log for licensing errors.

Thanks ntinlin,
Win2003 Web Edition will not run as a DC I don't think. I may have to downgrade them to 2000 Server to do it all in one box, right?
