I have a client with Vista Home basic on the laptop and she got about 90 days
with of terminal server accessing on the Windows Server 2000 and it just
expired. How do I correct this? Does she need to upgrade to Vista Home
Premium or Business or add TS CAL on the laptop? The Terminal server should
have enough connections. Thanks for your help!

The ability to use built-in 2000 TS CALs (or license equivalency) is
only applicable to Operating Systems equivalent or higher than
Windows 2000 Workstation.

Licenses are only granted to the following:

Windows XP Professsional (but not Home)
Windows Vista Business
Windows Vista Enterprise
Windows Vista Ultimate

Your client will need to upgrade to a supported Windows Vista version.

Can you use Vista Home, etc. if you buy licenses for your Terminal Server?
