I am referring to my other post with the same subject. When I try to connect to a windows 2003 server (5 device cal license installed) >> with

    uttsc -l de-DE -g 1024x768 10.0.0.201

  I get

    The Terminal Services license could not be upgraded.


I see this issue generally when temporarily license is expired.


My idea was that temporary licenses are only issued a few weeks after setting up the windows server. My assumption was that no RDP connections wouldn't be possible anymore at all if we hadn't installed the 5er CAL package. Is this assumption wrong?

Yes.


However, I can successfully connect to the same windows server via Sun Secure Global Desktop.


That may be getting new temporary license because that's a new device?


How does windows distinguish devices? All RDP connection are coming from the same machine (Solaris box with SRS and SGD installed). It appears that RDP connections still work from some Sun Rays but not from others.

Right. If the Sun Rays are first time connecting to the windows 2003 server, they will get 60 days grace period to work with out actual license CAL. If temporary license (60 days)
expired then it cease to function.

Is another Sun Ray another device for the windows 2003 server?

Yes.

How can it know that?

I don't know the internal details but I believe that is part of the RDP protocol ;-).


I thought both SRS and SGD use RDP!? Why does the sun ray windows connector connection fails. Any idea?


Open Winodws Teminal Licensing manager and see what's happening there.
You may get some clues.


I have already done that but do not get a clue. It tells me

Product                Total        Available    Issued
Temporary Licenses        -        -        9
TS Per Device CAL        5        0        5

It seems I have a lack of understanding here and actually no idea whether the attempt to connect from a given Sun Ray will succeed or not and if it does not why. Hints are greatly appreciated!

See the above.

Thanks
