The client could not connect to the remote computer

Hi,

I have an Ibook (mac os x 10.3.5) with rdc. I'm not able to connect to
my windows 2000 terminal server (running in application modo), but I'm
allowed to connect to a second windows 2000 terminal server (running
in administration mode).

Untill last week I was able to connect to both servers. I think that
the place to look for having the problem fixed is the temporary
license key and its expiration (the 90-day term is just elapsed), but
I have not found anything on the net. A second solution could be the
application of a security patch.


Thank you in advance

p.s.
the complete text of the error message is:

The client could not connect to the remote computer.
Either remote connection are not enabled, the maximum number of
connections was exeeded, or a network error occured.Try connecting
again later or contact your administrator.

You can check the excact reason for this error in the EventLog of
the Terminal Server.
If your temporary license has expired, you will have to do the
following:

1. install and activate a Terminal Services Licensing Server. This
service must run on a Domain Controller if your TS is part of a
Windows 2000 domain. In a workgroup, it can run on the same server
as the TS.
2. buy Terminal Services CALs and install them on the Licensing
Server.
