Hello, We have a client with a 2000 server and it has Office installed. We're
about to purchase a 5 pack of TS licenses for this server. My question is
will the Office programs work for all 5 TS sessions or will they have to
purchase additional Office licenses ? All the workstations connecting to the
terminal server have Office installed on their PCs as well. If they need to
purchase additional Office licenses, how do you tell the server that you have
them ?

Thanks,
Tony
 
If all clients already have an Office license, then you do *not*
have to buy additional licenses. And they will all be able to run
Office from the TS, provided that you installed Office *after* you
installed Terminal Services in Application Server mode, and
installed Office using the transform file from the Office Resource
Kit.
