To install the license service, choose Terminal Server Licensing during product setup, or at any time by choosing “Add or Remove Programs” from Control Panel, then “Add/Remove Windows Components”.
In Windows Server 2003, the licensing service can be installed on a workgroup–based server, a member server, or a domain controller.
During the installation of the Terminal Server Licensing service, you need to choose between the following modes of the license server:
Your entire enterprise (enterprise license server)
Your domain or workgroup (domain/workgroup license server)
These options determine how and when a license server will be discovered by terminal servers. In a workgroup or non-Active Directory domain, you must choose “Your domain or workgroup.” In this scenario, a license server is automatically discovered by any terminal server within the same subnet as the license server.
In an Active Directory–based domain, you might choose either option. An enterprise licensing server is automatically discovered by any terminal server within the same site as the license server. A domain licensing server is automatically discovered by any terminal server that is a member of the same domain as the license server.
