We need an additional 5 Device CALSs for our Windows 2003 Terminal
Server. Does the new Microsoft part number 6VC-01161 that is for
2008 RDS CALs work with this?

Thanks

Sorry I couldn't get your question properly...
Are you asking that Windows Server 2008 TS CALs work for Windows Server 2003
TS?
If so, then yes. If your license server is having Windows Server 2008 TS
CALs and Windows Server 2003 TS tries to get a CAL then license server will
issue Windows Server 2008 TS CAL to it. But the condition for this is that
you shouldn't set 'Prevent Upgrade Group Policy' on the license server. To
know about the more details of the 'Prevent upgrade group policy', check the

Hope that helps!
