but from the Windows XP box they were using as the server when I inherited that account, they spent 5k on a server. Yup I am aware a 'standard server' can run a DC/AD.

(which is why they do not run Office on the server as it came to $7500). Hmmmmm I got my info from a MS rep while on the phone. You don't need a license for every acocunt on the terminal server, only for those who can actually rdp to the server, wich is a permissions thing.īasically if there are only 5 users in the remote desktop group you only need 5 licenses. but I want to read any following information as well. only 5 actually log in to a remote desktop and use Office. So that meant (in my case) even though there were 15 user accounts on the server, that 10 of the 15 people only have those accounts in order to map network shares etc. but I was told during one of these conversations, that the terminal server (in my case a workgroup not a domain) had to have an Office license on the server for EVERY user account on that server, regardless of whether they use Office never, sometimes, or always. A volume license will not require activation. the price (for them) was far too high for 15 users. I have been asked to quote a client on a similar scenario.

We were hoping to do the min purchase of 5 keys then see how much the remote desktop services get used and expand our key base to what is needed but I need to know if it will actually install everywhere ok or will it lock 1 TS and 5 copies in use. I can see that being fine on just one server but do they not track the initial install key or the later use either? Do we need to activiate office any time a user logs in from a thin client or computer? Haven't used volume keys like this before so somewhat curious. The microsoft helper/reseller said that if we bought a 5 pack key it could be installed on all 3 servers and it would be fine as long as no more than 5 computers/devices were connected and using office 2010 at any one time. We are debating on getting office 2010 in volume license for them. They wont have many people connected to them really but there will be 3 because of location needs. We are going to have 3x terminal servers.
