Windows NT Terminal Server 2000 Question

[confused]

Hi People,

I have 3 server, 1 SBS 2000, 1 TS Server (W2K) and 1 APP Server (W2K).

After playing with the TS Server for over 90 days.....its now locked.

Now when I go to install the TS Licensing Server on the SBS 2000 Server I
get the screen with 'Terminal Server is currently configured to use - Remote
Administration'.

Now do I leave this as it is or choose Applications Server Mode?. The main
reason I ask is that I use the remote TS admin a lot and dont want to lose it.

Many thanks for your help.

Well, you have to decide:

Remote Administration mode is limited to two concurrent connections
and designated for administrators wanting to manage their servers.

Application Server mode has no connection limit - you need, however,
an activated TS licensing server with valid licenses.

I hope this helps.

Did you choose to install Terminal Services and Terminal Service
licensing? it sounds like you've chosen both.....

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

My SBS 2000 has terminal services installed but it remote admin mode. I
believe this was installed by default.

My member server 2000 has terminal services installed in app mode.

I need to install terminal server licensing on the SBS 2000 right?.

My question is when I install the TS licensing on the SBS 2000 it tells me
that it has already been setup in admin mode and gives me a choice to
reconfigure in app mode. Do I install the licensing in app mode instead.?

What I dont understand or havent been told yet is if I do this will it turn
my sbs2000 into a terminal server which of course I dont want.

All i want to do is activate the terminal server member server as its no run
out of evaluation time (90 days).

Hope you can help

No, keep the remote admin mode. TS licensing is unaffected by this.
