Terminal Services in Win 2000 Server

I have been trying to understand the licencing requirement for terminal services. I am assuming that when I purchased 10 CALs with my 2k Server, that meant I have 10 instances of whatever access to that 2k Server I care to have. 5 TS clients, 5 local clients, whatever.

Is this accurate? or do I need to purchase a separate license for TS?

Anybody familiar with setting up TS care to give me a quick overview and what to watch out for?

Thanks,
Jimmy

 

All Win2k clients come with one TS license so you don't need to worry about them.
AS far as I know the Win2k CAL are seperate from Terminal server licenses.
TS also seems to dish out as many temp licenses as you want for 98/Nt4 clients although the Temp licenses will only last I think it's 90 days or something like that, and then you will need to purchase them.
So if you purchase as you said 10 CAL's for win2k and you have installed Teminal services you can connect 10 clients to your server and run as many TS sessions as you wan't for win2k clients and you will have 90 days on all of your other clients.
You can also purchase special home user licences at a discounted price as in a lot of cases you will have a user that accesses a TS session in the office and at home therefore requiring two licenses

IF you go into TS licensing in the admin tools menu you will see all of your temp licenses and purchased etc.
Hope that helps. let me know. GJ
