Hi,

I have a question about my CAL's installed on a 2003 Licensing Server (Same
as terminal server). Now I want to install Windows Server 2008 (RC0) and run
on this. Can I move my CAL's from 2003 Licensing server to a new 2008
Licensing, and if yes how do I do this the right way?

Re: Terminal Server Licensing, move CAL's?

A 2008 TS Licensing Server can handle W2K, 2003 and 2008 TS CALs, so
that's no problem.
But licenses cannot be moved, not between 2003 TS Licensing Servers
either.
So you have to call the Clearinghouse and asked them to re-issue your
licenses for installation on the new LS.
For details, check:

Sure. Call the Clearing House. Just be sure to put their number on
"speed dial"... ;-)
