Guest Sprocket Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 I have a Terminal Server on a site that had a license held against an old PC. A new Pc was using a temporary license. 2 days ago the license for the old PC expired and the tempory license expired yesterday. The expired license is still showing against the old PC and hasnt released and the new PC cannot now connect. Why hasnt the old license become available. It is showing the date from 2 days ago for the expiry date.
Guest Vera Noest [MVP] Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Re: Terminal Server License 2003 You might have a problem where if Microsoft's Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) is running on the server, it could stop the thread in TS License Server that reclaims expired licenses. Try stopping and restarting TS License Server - it will restart the thread, and, if the bug is the culprit, expired licenses will be returned to the pool of available licenses within a couple of minutes after the reboot. 926935 - A Terminal Services client may be unable to connect to a Terminal Services license server that is installed on a Windows Server 2003-based computer http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=926935 _________________________________________________________ Vera Noest MCSE, CCEA, Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server TS troubleshooting: http://ts.veranoest.net ___ please respond in newsgroup, NOT by private email ___ =?Utf-8?B?U3Byb2NrZXQ=?= <Sprocket@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote on 10 jul 2007 in microsoft.public.windows.terminal_services: > I have a Terminal Server on a site that had a license held > against an old PC.
