TS 2003 User CALs (again!)

A

Adrian

Would someone please clarify for me the requirements for User CALs for when
running Terminal Server on Windows 2003.

I understand that 'It is our responsibility to have a valid User CAL for
every user that uses the terminal server.' and that currently ' per User
CALs are unmanaged'.

Does that mean if we have 30 staff using TS we need 30 User CALs? Or if only
20 are ever logged in at the same time then we only require 20 and that
should a 21st User want to log in (to remain legal) one user would need to
log out?

Thanks,

Adrian
