Products: Citrix MetaFrame 1.8 for Microsoft NT 4.0 Server Terminal Server Edition

Required licenses for deploying Terminal Server and MetaFrame and a description of the Microsoft License Server and Microsoft NT Workstation 4.0 license model

Deploying Terminal Server and MetaFrame on your network requires the following licenses:

Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition License

The Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition license is included with the purchase of Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition.

Windows NT Server Client Access License

Each device/computer or Windows-based terminal connecting to Terminal Server requires a Client Access License. Client Access Licenses permit clients to use the file, print, and other services provided by Windows NT Server. Terminal Server supports per seat licensing only; that is, each Client Access License is associated with the computer that accesses the server.

Windows NT Workstation 4.0 License

Each device/computer or Windows-based Terminal connecting to Terminal Server requires a Windows NT Workstation 4.0 license. Workstation licenses permit clients to use services provided by Terminal Server; for example, starting a Terminal Server session and running Windows-based applications on the server.

Citrix Licensing

The MetaFrame base license enables the multiuser features of MetaFrame. If the MetaFrame base license is not present, ICA connections are not supported. Every version of MetaFrame comes with a base license.

The following is a description of the Microsoft License Server and Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Licenses:

Microsoft License Server

Stores and tracks Windows NT Workstation licenses used by Terminal Server clients. Terminal Server License Manager is an administrative tool designed to help you track client usage of Terminal Server and ensure that you have purchased the proper number of Windows NT Workstation licenses. When the number of clients requesting licenses from License Server exceeds the number of licenses you have registered, you are reminded to purchase new licenses and register them. Use License Manager to register new licenses that you have purchased.

Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Licenses

If a client is running Windows NT Workstation 4.0, no additional license is required to connect to Terminal Server. You do not need to register Windows NT Workstation 4.0 clients on License Server. Terminal Server License Manager automatically recognizes these clients and tracks their usage of Terminal Server.

If a client is running Windows NT Workstation 3.51 or 3.5, you must purchase a Windows NT Workstation Version Upgrade for the client. Use Terminal Server License Manager to register the license by adding it to the Windows NT Workstation Version Upgrade license pack.

If a client is a Windows-based terminal or is running MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows 95, or other operating system, you must purchase a Windows NT Workstation 4.0 license for the client. Use Terminal Server License Manager to register the license by adding it to the Windows NT Workstation 4.0 Full License license pack.

None of this has anything to do with us, someone else is responsible for the entire thing, and we have no idea who or why. We do not know anything about it. It may be alien life forms for all we know: we haven't a clue. You cannot blame us for anything that may result from your visit. That was entirely your own personal choice, made by you of your own volition, and without our knowledge. We do not, after all, have any control over you and cannot by any stretch of the imagination be expected to accept or acknowledge, be it legally or morally, any accountability for decisions made by you on an independent basis, utilizing your own free will, and without our intervention. We are therefore in no way, shape, or form answerable to anyone for any consequences arising from the aforementioned or indeed any other actions, similar or otherwise, because it was not us that did, or did not do anything. It is not even remotely our fault, and we are in no way prepared or willing to accept any liability, not even slightly, ever. We are, in fact completely and utterly blameless, in that it is definitely not our concern, and no blame can possibly be laid at our doorstep, even if we had one, the possession of which we hereby reserve as being entirely our own free choice. The onus is not on us at all, and furthermore, never has been. The entire matter is wholly beyond our control, and completely out of our hands, each of which are washed scrupulously clean of the whole business. We are not accountable for anything at all, and we hereby categorically deny all responsibility for all that has ever, or will ever happen. Our innocence is therefore wholly beyond doubt and absolutely unimpeachable, and so cannot, under even the remotest or unlikeliest circumstances, be brought into question. By clicking either on a link on this site, clicking on a link that leads to this site, or by arriving at this site by natural or supernatural means, you are in effect accepting responsibility for the fact that it is all entirely your own fault, down to the most miniscule detail, and that you are wholly accountable for whatever outcome may arise as a consequence of the aforementioned action or actions insofar as they were undertaken personally by you on an entirely voluntary basis and without any persuasion, coercion or influence from any party or parties other than yourself. Don't come sniveling to us, we are only figments of your imagination. I also agree that if I am ever with a contributor to this website during mealtimes I agree to pay for any super-sizing of their meal, or at least a nice dessert or one of those foo-foo drinks with an umbrella or a monkey. By admitting to have seen the worthless spineless drivel on this website (also known as content)

I Agree Wholeheartedly and Without Reservation to the above. (Except maybe for that part about the monkey.)

No. Really, I do agree.
