*Scripting for IT Professionals Who Can't Write Code*

*In this session, learn the basics of writing script code, code that can 
then be used to write functional automation scripts. As a bonus, learn 
when NOT to write scripts by using your ability to understand sample 
scripts and customize them into powerful administration tools. Finally, 
learn the deep secrets of the command prompt in Windows XP, Windows 
Server 2003, Windows Vista, and the Microsoft Shell, that can be used to 
build automation tools that make your job easier.*

Title: OT: Enterprise Terminal Server Licensing Server question








Hi Freddy,

    Thanks for the feedback.  But I get
the same result from the W2K lsview.exe .  And this is running these tools
right on the license server/domain controller!  I am thinking that I need to
manually populate the AD group “Terminal Server Licensing Servers”. 
Conversely, I  hate making changes when there are no known problems.

Hi Mike

 

I had the same problems in which I
actually logged a pss call on, try using the windows 2000 resource kit version
of lsview.exe and it works fine.

 

Basically if i remember this correctly
using the win2003 lsview.exe it will only detect it if your machine is in the
same site as the tsls server, if you are running the lsview on a machine that
is outside the site, it wouldnt detect it.

 

No solution, fedup with the answers I was
getting - closed the ticket (as I thought this only occurs in my ex company,
apparently now im getting the same result as well)



 





Thank you
and have a splendid day!

 

Kind
Regards,

Enterprise Terminal Server Licensing Server question

Hi,

   
This is not causing any issues that I am aware of, but something does not seem
right.  We set up two Enterprise Terminal Server Licensing Servers, both
DCs.  They are both identified in CN=TS-Enterprise-License-Server,CN=site-name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=something,DC=com
under the attribute “siteServer”.  When
I run the GUI “LSVIEW.EXE” from the W2K3 ResKit,
nothing populates but the spotlight icon shows “green”
(ie, everything is hunky-dory).  Some more research shows that the AD
group “Terminal Server License Servers” has *no* members!  Would it make sense to
populate this group with the appropriate servers?  Any idea why it
wouldn’t have been populated in the first place?

TIA,

Mike

I have found a copy of this product on a old ZIP drive - this programme was 
given to me by its author Micky Balledellii before it's incorporation into 
OpenView but basically it's a visualisation of all sites and connectors and DC 
info - anyone out there from Compaq\HP know if I am still officially allowed to 
use it? Everyone who attended Teched Amsterdam 99/00 (not sure) was allowed to 
mail him for a copy so it was widley available - but perhaps nobody understood 
the product and only I asked for a copy - who knows?
