Mysterious NT Licensing Issue

Every time I delete users in the User Manager for Domains and try to remove old licenses and wait a few days, the deleted licenses reappear. When I view the License Manager lists I see users that don't exist anymore. I purge them and all is fine until I reboot the server; then the deleted user licenses show up again after a week or so. Is there a registry hack or fix that will remedy this issue?

Thanks in advance,
Damian

We had the same thing here. I found information about resetting the license logging service at Microsoft (Q153140 & Q194065) but decided instead to disable the license logging service throughout our network. Worked great!

Try double-clicking on the Windows NT Server under "Product" then select the user(s) and click "Revoke"

Where are you deleting the users from, the BDC or the PDC?
Disabling the license logging service would sort out the problem.
