Click on Start, Administrative Tools, then Terminal Server Licensing.
You will get a alert, just like this one:
"No Terminal Server License is available in the current domain or workgroup. To connect to another license server, click Action, click Connect, and then type the server name."
So click on Action, Connect.
In Connect to License Server, you can use the IP Address or Netbios name of your server. If you're not familiar with your server computer name, check with your system adminitrator or system engineer. I'm assuming you are the system administrator of this server that's why you are reading this step-by-step procedure. Well, to minimize error use the IP Address in the server field.
Server: 192.168.1.100 ; where this IP address is your Terminal Services Licensing Server
Click on OK to continue. You will see your server name and Activation Status.
