Every so often when I check my event logs, I get NT and Exchange User Liscense Errors that say we've reached our liscensing limits. When I check the Liscensing area, the users that show up are employees that are not longer with the organization. Icontinually revoke/delete these users however, they keep showing up. Is there a way to permanently delete these users so that they are not constantly appearing?

Thanks

NT License Manager has a habit of doing this. Sometimes, you just have to clean it out completely and start over. First, make a note of the number of licenses and any other relevant info you have in License Manager (i.e., when purchased, licensingper seat or per server, etc.). Then, follow the steps in the following articles to delete your license files and re-create them: Q153140 and Q194065 (if you don't have TechNet, go to www.microsoft.com/technet and search for the article numbers). Hope this helps!
