Server 2003 CALS problem

by ian lewis . Updated 19 years, 11 months ago

Hi,

I have a tricky problem with one of my server which is telling me it has run out of Client Access Licenses.

In spite of using the Control Panel widget and the License Manager app I can’t get it to permit any more than 3 (or is it 5) connections.

The server is an HP DL380 with an OEM version of Server 2003 R2 installed. The installation was set for 25 Per Server which I changed to Per seat.

How on earth does the CALs thing work but nothing I have read from MS makes any sense as it is written in their own special language which bears no link to reality, sound familiar?

All help gratefully received.
Ian
