I have just recently installed Win XP Pro(Sp 2) on my home pc from Win 2k Pro. Previsouly I used to be able to connect to my offices terminal server with no problems on my old machine. After installing XP and trying to connect with Remote Desktop I get the following error: 'The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the licensing protocol. Please try connecting to the remote computer again or contact your server administrator.' I can not find much help from Microsoft on this and have tried many things I have found online to attempt to correct this. I can still connect from home with no problem from Win 2k boxes, and was able to connect from a friends XP box so I think it must be something specific to my machine. There is no help from the App Logs either.

Any help would be greatly sppareciated.
 
Tried that as well, did not solve the problem.
 
The issue is on the Host end then. You will need to look at the Event logs on the TS server.
 
Thank you Bcastner, that solved my problem.
Appreciate ALL the good advices you've posted.
 
It worked for me. Thanks Bcastner here is a Star!
