Error 202 Licensing issue - Please help

[Steve Gould]

I get the error message below about licensing on my DC that is the FSMO
master. This started about a week ago and I can't locate the offending
computer. All my servers are licensed (I verified the settings) as "Per
Seat". I shouldn't be getting any error messages, but I am. Does anyone know
the registry key location? Maybe one of my servers says per seat, but has an
incorrect registry setting? The error occurs two or three times a day.

The Event Id 202 indicates that the server displaying the error is not out of licenses, but another server on the same domain. If you have other servers on your domain, make sure they are running the roper number of licenses to match the ones installed on the server.

For more information, visit the following URL:

Generally, the Event ID 202 is displayed when a member/other server in the domain is out of licenses and Event ID 201 displayed when the server itself is out of licenses. Therefore, there may be additional Windows 2000 server in the domain which is out of licenses.

Thank you for the info. All the servers are set to "per seat", but one of
them I recently changed to this from "Per Server". Maybe that one is
glitching. I need to look more into it.
