From: mr555 on 26 Jan 2010 17:32 Hi Silvia Thank you for your reply The servers having these problem is on (Domain B) The licensing server is on a different domain (Domain A) , there is a forest trust between the 2 domains Current 2008 licensing server is activated, last admin didn't migrate the old license server to the current licensing server, he just added the license to the new 2008 license server and then uninstalled the license form the 2003 terminal server licensing and changed the GPO. Both of the licensing servers are on the same domain.
