Hi all,

I am running a Win2K Terminal Server with 10 CAL licenses, I am thinking of
moving to 2003 server, I am wondering whether i can reuse all these
licenses(because i am on the Action Pack subscription). If i can reuse all
the licenses, do i have to some how check out my existing Terminal service
license before i can enrol it to my new server(actually rebuild the Win2K
Terminal Server).

Cheers

Check the conditions of your licensing agreement to see if it
includes license upgrade rights. If it does, you will have to order
the new licenses, you cannot simply use the same licenses on a 2003
server and somehow convert them "in place" into 2003 licenses.

The details depend on your particular agreement, check with your
local vendor.
