[AccessD] Access & Terminal Services

Your summation is correct as I understand it. I ran it by our network admin and he agrees.

Thanks Neal. So, just to clarify, if we have TS running in Application
server mode on a W2000 server, and clients coming on are all W2K Pro, then
we need no other licenses (except for app'n software of course)? I started
to look this up on the MS website but when I came across a White Paper on TS
licensing I folded. I just want simple answers not a bloody disseration.

Terminal Services to be in Application mode or Remote Administration mode.
In Remote Administration mode you are limited to two concurrent users and it
is licensed for two clients. In application mode you have (I believe)
unlimited concurrent log ons, but each client must have it's own license.
Win2K and XP come with a terminal services license; prior OSs do not and you
have to pay.
