Hi all,

I've installed the Terminal Server licence component on my Win2k SP3 server. I've activated it with 20 licences. When I go in Licence for client Terminal Server Windows 2000, I can see all the clients but they are different:
Some have an expiration date and the others haven't that.
I'm asking Why and what will be the behavior when the date will be passed ?
If it's the famous enhancement of the SP3 (token reinsuance), why is it different from one client to another ?
Thanks in advance.

We have had the exact same thing here except I licensed for 50 users. We have seen the expiration date come and go for several users and they are still able to connect with no problem, nor do they get a terminal server license message. I'm not sure why it's different from one client to another. Would be interested as to why this is myself. The users who have used a temp license should now have a permanent license and the expired license should go away, for some reason though they don't. Users will still be able to connect though if you have installed CAL's.

Good Luck
