TS license info

I have changed the administrators name for security reasons and my terminal
services is saying time is running out for the for the demo accounts. I
though administration of the server was included with TS. I am not running
applications under TS just administration, My question is do I need to
purchase a license for administrating my server under TS?

First of all, your issue has nothing to do with changing the admins
password.

You don't write which OS you run on the Terminal Server, but I'm
pretty sure it's 2003, is that correct?
If so, you have mistakenly installed Terminal Services, which
implies Application Server mode. This means that every connection
requires additional licensing.
If you only want Remote Administration of the server, uninstall
Terminal Services completely, and enable Remote Desktop for
Administration. This is done in Control Panel - System - properties
- Remote, just like on XP.
