Re: Temporary licenses for Windows 2003
That's a good point, Helge, a rogue TS is certainly a possibility.
Tfhknx5219, if Helges suggestion isn't the solution, then how about
this:
you write that all temporary Per Device TS CALs which are issued by
your licensing server are going to expire next week. That means
that they all have been issued around 2-3 months ago.
Could it be that they were issued to your clients *before* you
installed the Per User licenses and switched your TS to the Per
user licensing mode?
If so, then all is as it should be. Once the temporary licenses
expire, they will be around in the TS Licensing Manager for one
more month and then be removed automagically.
You have a problem *only* if new temporary Per Device licenses were
issued to clients *after* you switched the TS to Per user licensing
mode.
