We support a site running the following;

SBS Server 2003 - SP2 (Domain Controller)
Server 2008 STD - SP2 (Terminal Server & TS Licensing Server)

We have applied the appropriate TS CAL's but they are not being issued.

Licensing Diagnosis indicates no issues and shows the licenses are installed
correctly, the grace period expires in only a couple of days and I know
after this period we are going to run into problems.

In the event logs I can see "Terminal Server was unable to retrieve users
Licensing information from AD. Error 2147943726!d!"

The client is also experiencing morning when users are unable to logon,
unfortunately its really early so the the client just shuts down the TS
Server via the power button even though we have told them not to.

Any ideas as to what is going on?

Can you try unjoining and joining the machine (on which you have installed
TS and the license server) to the domain again? I guess there is an issue in
the joining of the domain..

Also, just few additional questions to clarify the setup..
What is the licensing mode set on the TS? - It should be Per User only. And
your license server should be a part of 'Terminal Server License Servers'
group on the Domain Controller.

Hope that helps!
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.

Licensing mode is Per User and the Licensing Server is a member of the
Terminal Server License Servers group on the DC.

Since installing the Licenses I am not getting the notification about the
grace period ending when I log in via the console, however it still doesn't
show that any Licenses are being issued to users under the Licensing
Manager.

Perhaps its a bug or something?

Thanks
Matt

For Per User, can't see the issued license directly. You need to generate
report for that.

Right Click on the server name under 'All Servers' node. There will be an
option of 'Report'. Click on 'Generate Report' and proceed as the Wizard
guides you. Save the report generated and open that report as notepad. That
will give you all the details of the licenses issued.

Thank you very much, it all makes sense now.
