Manually Publishing And Un-publishing Terminal Server License Servers
Thursday, 01 March 2007 by Michel Roth
The Terminal Services Team has a page up on how you can manually publish and un-publish your Terminal Server License server(s). Why would you do this? Well if somehow the Terminal Server License server does not register itself with AD then you need to do this by hand.

"Terminal Servers automatically discover TS License Servers available in a deployment by querying the Active Directory Catalog for a list of license servers. This list is in the "TS-Enterprise-License-Server" object in the Catalog Server. Typically, License Servers in "Enterprise" discovery mode publish themselves to this list during installation. However, this process may go wrong for a variety of reasons, and the publishing step may need to be performed manually. Alternatively, when the discovery mode or deployment location of a License Server changes, it may be necessary to un-publish the LS from the list. In this post, I want to discuss how you can perform these manual operations in Windows Server 2003 License Server.
