In addition, Microsoft offers several flexible, cost-effective options for licensing.
Windows Terminal Server 2003 5 User CAL Only PackTerminal Services functionality in Windows Server 2003 lets you remotely execute applications on a Windows-based server from a wide range of devices over virtually any type of network connection. A server running Terminal Services can be referred to as a Terminal Server (TS). A TS User CAL permits one user (using any device) to conduct Windows Sessions on any of your servers.Windows Server versions prior to 2003 do not necessarily require the use of specialized Terminal Services CALs; rather, clients which are of at least the same or lower version of the operating system are allowed access automatically. For example, Windows NT 4.0 clients may connect to Windows NT 4.0 terminal servers but not Windows 2000 or later; Windows 2000 or Windows XP clients may connect to Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 terminal servers.
