Notes
Terminal Serviceslicensingopen
When Terminal Server Licensing opens, it locates all license servers in your workgroup or domain.
To connect to a license server, a terminal server must have the Access this computer from the network logon right for the target license server. Additionally, if the License Server Security Group setting in Group Policy is enabled, the terminal server computer account must be a member of this group. Enabling this Group Policy setting and applying it to your license server creates a local group called Terminal Services Computers. The license server issues licenses only to the terminal servers in this group. You must add both the terminal servers for which you need to provide licenses and any license servers that might need to acquire licenses to this group for each license server.
