Absolutely not possible with a 2000 server. You should use a 2003 DC in a perfect environment. It is however possible to use your 2003 terminal server to do it. Just install Terminal Server licensing and follow the KB article here.
Thanks, I was worried that was the case. But I also must ask, can the Terminal Server also be its own licensing server? One friend told me that the TS had to use a wholly other server as its terminal server, but I'm beginning to doubt that statement.
What I said above will work. I've had that setup in a few productions environments. Not optimal but when you can't get a Domain Controller upgraded and the server needs to go in you have no choice. On a side note; if you are really against having it on the TS itself, any old 2003 server will do. Just be sure to put the registry settings to point to it on the Terminal Server.
