Windows NT/2000::Terminal Services::Licensing


Problem
Windows 2000 terminal server has licensing that must be activated via internet. Early versions of terminal services had a bug that did not properly "release" old client licenses. Obtain latest release and patches to correct this problem. Contact MS licensing to work out license pool.
TEMPORARY WORKAROUND
When client attempts to logon, "Terminal server licensing not allowed. "

Registry hack will allow continued use of "temporary license" for another 90 days.
At the client side, merge the following file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSLicensing\HardwareID]
"ClientHWID"=hex:02,00,00,00,05,d9,74,7e,a0,d4,cc,9e,87,b2,61,75,9e,a9,d5,05
