Hello
We have a Windows Terminal Server License server that is currently a
member of a Windows NT domain. We are in the process of moving all
servers into our AD domain by the end of the month. Our License
Server is scheduled to leave its current resource domain to join the
AD domain Wednesday. My concern is that our licenses will no longer
function once this change occurs. Does anyone out there have any
experience with this? Any advice on what I can expect? Is there a
standard procedure that I should be following? Thanks in advance.
 
Depends on the OS you run on your LS and TS, whether the new LS
will be a Domain Controller or not, and the location of your TS.

Sine there are too many possible combinations of these factors, I
can't give you a complete answer.
You might have to hardcode the address of the LS into the registry
of the TS. How this is done depends on the OS on your TS:
