TS Member Server
MuniciNET
I have the TS Cals I need, but am a bit confused. Should I put the TS Cals
on the SBS box to act as the licensing server of is it ok to have the TS box
act as the licensing server too? There will be about 10-12 users.
TIA!

the SBS, but I have done it both ways.
One of the thoughts in this process may have to do with which server is more
likely to be there in the long run, or, perhaps, in MS land of having more
than one TS attached to one Licensing Server.

link says to use the TS server unless the SBS server was an upgrade from SBS
2000 with TS in Application mode enabled:
Deploying Windows Server 2003 Terminal Server to Host User Desktops
(See section 6)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sbs/2003/deploy/adstrmsr.mspx
Not sure if there's any advantages one way or another.

TS licensing folder location:

In summary, the targeted and excluded list of folders for a SYSVOL tree that
is placed in its default location would look similar to the following:
1. %systemroot%\sysvol
Exclude
2. %systemroot%\sysvol\domain Scan
3. %systemroot%\sysvol\domain\DO_NOT_REMOVE_NtFrs_PreInstall_Directory
Exclude
4. %systemroot%\sysvol\domain\Policies Scan
5. %systemroot%\sysvol\domain\Scripts Scan
6. %systemroot%\sysvol\staging
Exclude
7. %systemroot%\sysvol\staging areas
Exclude
8. %systemroot%\sysvol\sysvol
Exclude
If any one of these folder or files have been moved or placed in a different
location, scan or exclude the equivalent element.
*DFS*
The same resources that are excluded for a SYSVOL replica set must also be
excluded when FRS is used to replicate shares that are mapped to the DFS
root and link targets on Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003-based member
computers or domain controllers.

Treat the TS box as a big fat shared workstation you can reboot at will
without disrupting anything but the TS users - it shouldn't be doing
*anything* else. Your DC/SBS box is a more logical place to handle the
licensing.
