Background: 6 months experience as IT Administrator and at this position.

Discussion: While checking Application Log on one of my W2003 servers, I came across this error ? License Service Event ID: 202. I read the MS support pages, etc. Basically I found that under AdminTool/Licensing/Clients, there are approx 108 ?clients? that ARE NOT current employees. Under PROPERTIES it shows the last log-on date. Some are over 5.5 years old.

THE QUESTIONS: Should I delete these people or just revoke the license? and what is the difference between revoking and deleting?

MY THOUGHTS: Delete these people and keep the data base clean all the time to only reflect current employees.

Much thanks in advance for guidance.

Are their users accounts in Active Directory? Delete them is my advice.

If their accounts are gone, then revoke the licenses.

Dear Friend

Thank you for your help. These "users" are not in the Active Directory. I constantly delete them and they constantly reappear as does the warning: License Service 202.

What is my next step?

Thanking you in advance.

Friend in need, friend indeed!
