Terminal Server Licensing service not starting

[Guest]

I get the following error in the event viewer when I try to start the
Terminal Server Licensing service(TSLS) from the "Service"-program. Same
thing happens if I try to start it from the command prompt with "sc start
TermServLicensing".

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7024
Date: 2004-12-10
Time: 15:24:16
User: N/A
Computer: MIDUTB4
Description:
The Terminal Server Licensing service terminated with service-specific error
2 (0x2).

I had the exact same problem earlier when I had just installed Windows 2003
Terminal Server, but then I just had to add File and Printer Sharing for
Microsoft Networks to my Local Area Connection and the TSLS started without a
problem. I had activated TSLS and added all the CALs and it had been running
for a few days giving out real licenses to the thin client users when I
noticed some event id 7000 errors in the event viewer. These errors had to do
with Novell's Remote Management, and since I'm not using it I used
"RMSetup.exe /uninstall" then restarted the server. When the server started
up again I got the TSLS error 7024 and wasn't able to start the service
again.

Any feedback on my problem would be appreciated, as I fear that I will have
to re-install the whole OS and all programs and call Microsoft again for the
code to activate TSLS.

I finally managed to solve this problem without re-installing Windows. All I
had to do was to uninstall and install File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft
Networks and the Terminal Server Licensing service started.
