"remote session was disconnected because there are no terminal server client access licenses available"
Subjects .... Computers (Search)
You try to use remote desktop to connect with a server, one that you have always been able to connect with before, and instead of connecting with terminal services to get a remote desktop connection, instead you get this error:
- "The remote session was disconnected because there are no terminal server client access licenses available for this computer. Please contact the server administrator."
Microsoft Technet has an article that does not cover this situation:
- technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServer?Create|Search/en/library/b492a8d2-078a-460f-904b-f33c2e4cedab1033.mspx?mfr=true
Cause
- The license server might not have any remaining Per Device CALs to issue.
Solution
- Use Terminal Server Licensing to Verify that the license server has a sufficient number of CALs for clients requiring remote connections.
- If the license server does not have a sufficient number of permanent CALs, Purchase CALs as needed, and then Install CALs automatically, as needed.
The licensing troubleshooter is also useless. (www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/mstsc_tshoot_lic.mspx?mfr=true)
The Real Solution
For administering a server, these licenses aren't needed. You can run up to two administrative remote desktop logins at the same time, in addition to the physical keyboard and screen, (for a total of three desktop sessions.)
The solution is actually the following:
- First close the remote console and make a back-up of your registry on the workstation you are using to connect on the server.
- Second, delete this registry key using regedit on the computer you are using for connect on the server:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\MSLICENSING
- Start the remote console and try to log into the server...
