    If you're talking about Windows Server, I suggest you to ask your question in the Windows Server General Forum at the following address

    Otherwise, please provide us with more detailed informations about your problem, so that we can suggest a more appropriate Forum where you can ask your question.

    Or, if you'd like, I can move this question to the Win Serv Gen forum or to another specific forum.

    Thanks!

    I suggest to call MS licensing for any issue regarding license. Call (800) 426-9400 Monday through Friday, 6:00 AM to 5:30 PM Pacific Standard Time (http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/contact-us.aspx)

    MS give you the rigth to use 2 RDP license for administrative purpose on a server. If it's a server that will be a terminal server, then you need to activate the licensing service, and active all the TS's role to make that work with more license. Again, the licensing team at MS will clarify that for you! (RDS CAL, TS CAL, etc.. to activate on your licensing 's server in exemple)
