Re: Rdesktop 1.5 and Windows Server 2003 Licenses per DEVICE trouble

Hello Michael, Hello Kevin
 
thanks for that. But in my company it´s cheaper to have per Device CAL´s as we have 3 -5 Users per Device with 7x24 hours work time. If we have to invest in per User CALS there is the problem 8-)...
And my BOSS want´s to be on the good site with licenses 8-))..
 
any other help... Where have the old save license code from rdesktop 1.4 gone ??
 
Thanks for help..
bye
Roman

	You don't have to contact the clearing house.
	Simply change the licensing mode on the terminal server(s) you are connecting to.

		Licensing for Per Device doesn't work in 2003, and never has.  Swap the TS
		to per user, and it's fine.

		Hello we are using nearly 150 Thin Clients with rdesktop 1.5 in our Terminal
		Server farm. We use Per Device CAL´s. 
		Our users have the Problem that sometime ( sooner or later ) every user gets
		an Application popup at Logon Time from the server, that the license will
		expire in 7 (6 , 5 ,4 ,3 ,2, ,1 ) days and they should contact the admin. If
		i check the License Server i see some infos about the clients.
		
		Lsreport output:

		I found thins here from Brian Madden which says that rdesktop can´t handle
		licenseing right.
		http://www.brianmadden.com/content/content.asp?ID=670
		
		Any way to come around this. Or do i have to change from per Device to per
		USER cal ?
		
		Any help or Info would be great. How does Neoware/Igel/Wyse or other Thin
		Client vendors which use Linux and rdesktop do the trick ? Where is the GPL
		Code they changed ?
		
		
		Thanks a lot
		Roman
