Guest Meinolf Weber Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Re: Licensing in Thin Client Enviourment??? Hello Saurabh, Licensing requirements for computers that access a Windows Server 2003-based Terminal Server The Windows Server 2003 licensing model requires a server license for each copy of the server software that is installed. Terminal Services functionality is included in this Windows Server 2003 license. In addition to a server license, a Windows Server 2003 CAL (Windows CAL) is required. If you want to conduct a Windows session, an incremental Terminal Server Client Access License (TS CAL) is required also. A Windows session is defined as a session where the server software hosts a graphical user interface (GUI) on a device. For Windows sessions, a TS CAL is required for each user or device. The following two types of TS CALs are available:. TS Device CAL: A TS Device CAL permits one device (that is used by any user) to conduct Windows sessions on any of your terminal servers. . TS User CAL: A TS User CAL permits one user (who uses any device) to conduct Windows sessions on any of your terminal servers. You may decide to use a combination of TS Device CALs and TS User CALs at the same time. You can have a terminal server request TS User CALs (by selecting the Per User licensing option) or TS Device CALs (by selecting the Per Device licensing option [the default option]) but not both at the same time. Note To use both User and Device TS CALs at the same time on the same Terminal Server, configure the server to use the Per User TS CAL licensing option. Failure to have the appropriate number of User CALs or Device CALs for each device or user who is connecting is a violation of the EULA. With Microsoft Windows 2000 Terminal Services licensing, if a client device is running the most recent version of the Windows desktop operating system, it does not have to have a TS CAL to satisfy the licensing requirement. However, with Windows Server 2003, a TS CAL is required for each device that or user who is using Terminal Services functionality, regardless of the operating system that is running on that device.
