| In addition to the Windows 2000 server itself, Terminal Services has the following client licensing requirements when enabled in "Application Server" mode: A Windows 2000 Server Client Access License (CAL) or BackOffice 2000 CAL is required to access the Windows 2000 server. A Windows 2000 Terminal Services CAL or a license for Windows 2000 Professional is required to run Windows-based desktop and applications from a Windows 2000 server, regardless of the protocol or software used to interact with applications running on the server. As per the Windows 2000 Server End User License Agreement, "Terminal Services" means: (i) using the terminal services feature of the Server Software to enable Devices to use software residing on the Server, or (ii) Using other software in conjunction with the Server Software to provide similar services Appropriate application licenses. Licensing varies by independent software vendor (ISV). For instance, Microsoft Office is licensed on a per-device basis. This means that each end-device that displays Office applications requires a license to be assigned to it. Note: Terminal Services is licensed on a per-device basis and is not available on a per-server or concurrent basis with the exception of the Terminal Services Internet Connector License explained below. Each device, whether it connects directly to the terminal server, or indirectly via another server, requires the appropriate licenses to be assigned to it.
