How do you tell if clients are receiving TS licenses in Per User?

[Guest]

Much like the subject line says...

If you're running Windows 2003 in Per User mode and Win2k3 doesn't
de-increment the user cals. How do you know if user cals are being assigned?

I have an activated license server with installed per user cals with a
server running in per user mode. I have 34 temporary licenses assigned
within Terminal Server Licensing which will expire in a few days.

Should I be seeing users listed within Terminal Server Licensing under the
Per User Cal tokens? (which i'm not)

I'm receiving no error or information event logs messages to state that it
is or isn't working???

If you don't see any EventLog records regarding licensing, and the
users don't get a warning about expiring licenses, then everyting
should be fine. Warnings about expiring licenses start to pop up
when there's less then 14 days left to expiration, so they should
have started if things were not OK.
Note that every *first* connection from a client uses a temporary
license. Naybe the ones that you see are remnants from a period
that the server was still configured to use Per Device licenses?

Thanks for your help Vera.

I did the only thing I could do and that was just wait for the expiration
period to pass. That has now happened and users are still connecting fine.

I still, however, have temporary licenses listed in License Manager. is
that normal? (The expiration date has past on those licenses).

Temporary licenses clean up after they expire. The timeframe for
this is 31 days after expiration.
