TS Multiple Licenese Type Issues

[Guest SB]

My enivonrment has a Windows 2000 Domain TS License Server running. A

Windows 2003 Enterprise License server was added to the domain but not

assigned any licences. This server had its Enterprise TS Licenesing

component uninstalled, and then removed from the domain. This caused our

existing systems to warn us that they couldn't locate their license server

and the client licenses were going to expire. I found the following article:

 

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304080/en-us

 

which outlines how to undo a Domain TSLS that was changed to an Enterprise

TSLS. Since our original TSLS was never touched and the reg key outlined in

the article indicated a Domain TSLS, I removed the TS-Enterprise object from

our site thinking this would remove the Enterprise TSLS information from our

domain. It's been more than a day and other Terminal Servers are still

looking for the Enterprise license server and warning of license expiration,

and still showing that Enterprise License server's name in their license

server name dialogs. Is there something still in AD providing this info to

the terminal servers? I would like to try and resolve this without having to

touch the remaining Domain TSLS if possible. Any input is greatly

appreciated as I don't know where to look next.

 

TIA,

You don’t need to delete the "TS-Enterprise" object, you can check following

link how to manually un-publish TSLS,

Other thing, make sure you un-publish the TSLS from correct site. May be you

can check TS and TSLS are in same site.
