W2008 Final: Is per user CAL allocation enforced or not?

[Guest Gross, Michael]

Hi,

 

as to the article

 

http://www.msterminalservices.org/articles/Changes-Windows-Server-2008-Terminal-Server-Licensing-Part1.html

 

Windows 2008 RC0 still didn't enforce per user CAL allocation. However,

it's not clear whether or not it's enforced in the final version.

 

Does anybody know what the final does and probably bring a little light

into the darkness?

 

Thanks,

Michael

AFAIK, Per User licenses are tracked, but not enforced by software.

Of course the EULA still applies, so you must have enough TS CAL,

whether they be Per User or per Device.
