Wasn't a 'thesis', was simply making a line of enquiry based upon the title of the thread, along with offering one of a number of possible reasons for the issue presented.

I only have access to MAK and Retail keys via MSDN, so I am unsure of the exact licencing procedures involved with remote terminal server licence activation.

Had a google, and came accross this. Hope it helps...
