User CAL or RDS CAL for this kind of access?
My client need a VM with Windows Server 2022 installed. I've tell him to provide a Windows Server 2022 Standard 16 core installation but i'm confused with CAL license. The VM will start with an autologon on a user and then my customer will connect via RDP to that session (same user that starts in autologon) to manage the installed application (a SCADA automation software). Do I require a RDP CAL or a simple USER CAL? Thanks
vamt activate through active directory server 2019 error Product key not available
Hi, I setup a new VAMT server on a Server 2019. Installed the volume-kms-key on the server and add it in VAMT. I put the KMS key for Win10 LTSB, Win10 LTSC, Office 2016 and Server 2019 of via Volume activation tools in the active directory. After that i installed the KMS client key for the server 2019. Now i try to activate a license on a server 2019 with the option automaticaly select a kms client key (GVLK). It return with an error "Product key not available". The strange thing is that when i select manualy the same kms client key (GVLK) for server 2019 and after that i select activate license it works. On the info of the server it says Volume activation methode: Active directory activation and AD activation object: Windows(R) Operating System, VOLUME_KMS_WS19 channel what is the right one. How can i get a direct license activation through active directory like for my windows 10 LTSB workstations. Regards, ErnstLoadbalancer on top of the RDS User CAL Licesning Server
Hi, Because of our network architecture, connecting to the RDS License server from all other networks (200+) is currently not possible without creating a IPSec tunnel from each and every network to the network where RDS Licensing server is located. Alternatively, there are few common networks in place which act as a hub for 10s of networks and so we created a network loadbalancer with backend being the RDS Licensing server and try to use that loadbalancer IP as the licensing server in RDSH servers. But this does not seems to be working when we checked the RD licensing diagnoser. So, my question is does RDS Licensing server supports loadbalancer? If supports is there any document or solution available?

On the datacenter they tried their licenses and they didnt work on this preview version.. Any idea how to avoid the entire server reinstall? Thanks
RDP Licensing in Server 2019
Good morning Everyone, I had posted this message the other day but I can not find it now so I hope it's not a duplicate! How do I license RDP for Windows 2019? I've stood up 2 Windows 2019 Insider servers, one for an RDP license server and the other for a development server. My developers need Windows Services for Linux and the likes so moving to 2019 was the only way I found to get there with a GUI. I'm trying to activate licenses and the license server, when set to automatic, returns an error and says chose another method of activation. Trying to use activate.microsoft.com doesn't work and neither does telephone activation. Are there any facilities in place for activating RDP licenses yet? If so, how to I get there from here? If not, I can run RDP in eval mode for the 120 days but then, are activation facilities expected to be in place before the evaluation ends? Thanks, -brian
