Your nifty little open source tool doesn't have a way to track and store the device CALs issued by the terminal server outside of storing them in the home directory of the user, which gets destroyed after every session. You can use per user CAL's to work around or develop your own solution to grab them as they are issued, store somewhere associated with the terminal ID of the Sun Ray, and then retrieve and present them again on both new sessions, or when you hot desk ( the latter to be in compliance with MS's rules about device based licensing).

I’m running SRSS 3.1.



SRWC 2.2 is provided as part of SRSS 4 onwards I believe.



I have a setup that works and is fairly static although will change dramatically at the end of this academic year – I will consider SRS5 at that point. I’ve had many conversations with our Sun/Oracle reps about this and I just couldn’t justify the upgrade costs over the p ast few years.



In the meantime I was hoping others had a similar setup to mine and used this nifty little opensource tool (rdesktop) and could help =).

Hi all,



I recently reinstalled my WTS2008 (Standard, SP2) and activated it with per device TS CALs for use with my Sun Rays. I use rdesktop 1.6.0 to connect to the WTS and have been doing so for the last year using the same scenario.


Why don't you use SRWC 2.2_patch that doesn't have any license
issues when connecting to W2008?.

Thanks

Since this week for some reason I haven’t been able to connect to th e server from my Sun Rays as I get a “Disconnect: Internal licensing error” – I don’t think I’ve changed anything at all on the service and/or my Solaris server – I’ve connected multiple times a couple weeks ago and am utterly confused as to what could be going on?



There are no errors listed on the TS Manager or Event Viewer on the windows side (I connect from window clients, no problems). As far as the Solaris side I have access to a few user accounts and the only way I can get them to log on is if I clear out the “.rdesktop” folder from their home directories every time before they connect (u sing this method only allows a user to connect to the WTS once using rdesktop). I’ve seen many similar posts online without a clear sol ution.



The only thing I can think of is I manage an educational set up and the software magically knows that it’s September =S.



Any help or feedback will be most appreciated.



Thank you,



Sarosh
