Win2003 Licensing Server install

[Guest Joe]

Question:

 

We have a TS licensing server & TS server in our west coast forest and

would like to add a TS to our east coast forest. Do we need a

seperate licensing server in the east coast forest or should we be

able to use our current west coast licensing server? Both forest are

AD and there is a trust relationship.

 

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Licenses server cannot be shared across forests unless the license

server is in a workgroup.

That is not quite correct. See:

 

http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B905687&x=9&y=10

 

Prior to W2k3 SP2 the forest trust had to support Kerberos. Beginning

with SP2 the trust can also be external (NTLM).

 

I hope this helps.

As a further addition:

Helge is right that the problem with external trusts is fixed in

SP2, but for those who want to stay on SP1 and only use the hotfix,

there's a newer hotfix which replaces 905687:
