One of the features of Citrix Presentation Server licensing is that an individual Presentation Server will continue to function for 30 days after it loses connectivity to a Citrix License Server. This article explains how that process works and how a server "knows" what licenses the license server had before it went offline.

Many vendors, including Microsoft, have special licensing programs for service providers. They essentially let them "pay as they go," only charging them a small amount per user per month instead of some huge up-front costs. Is it time for Citrix to offer a similar program?

One of the interesting tidbits I picked up at BriForum last week was the fact that Citrix was sending rescission letters to all of their Presentation Server 4.0 customers.

By now everyone knows that a Terminal Server CAL token is stored on a client device after that client connects to a terminal server. But how does this work in situations where the client device doesn't have any local storage capabilities? How do Microsoft and Citrix work around this? And what about the Linux and open source clients?

Citrix has just made a 2-user developer license for Presentation Server available for anyone to download for free from MyCitrix. This is a good move on their behalf, as previously the only way to play with Presentation Server was to call a reseller to get a license that would expire every 90 days.

If you owned (or were licensed for) Windows XP Professional before April 24, 2003, you are eligible to receive a free Windows Server 2003 Terminal Server Client Access License (TS CAL). However, this program will expire on December 31, 2005, so make sure you get your free license soon.

Ever wanted to give your seamlessly published applications that cool Windows XP curvy blue window frame instead of the boring square old-school one? You can do it with a Windows 2003 Terminal Server and the Themes service.
