Drivers 2878 Published by

This update includes two "Terminal Services Licensing Enhancements" for Windows 2000, and is discussed in Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article Q287687. Download now to improve the way Windows 2000 handles Terminal Services (TS) Client Access License (CAL) tokens, thereby increasing logon security.

This update addresses two license issuance procedures in Windows 2000: "Post Logon License Token Issuance" and "Automatic License Token Re-issuance." The first enhancement improves the validation of temporary TS CAL tokens to full TS CAL tokens, thereby preventing the tokens from being inadvertently allocated to computers that are not intended to be licensed for Terminal Services usage. The second enhancement improves the automatic recovery of a TS CAL token should the original one be lost because of hard-disk failure, clean reinstallation, or another method.
