Not sure, but I thought indirect meant from a client that is not consuming the TSCAL ie, passing through from another Terminal Server or some other scenario where your RDP session is not executing on the end point…..

I'm thinking "indirectly" just means they aren't at the console. But I'm on the slow bus and trying to figure out the change...though is the per user licensing enforced yet in 2008 or is it still on the honor system?

Indirectly: Firewall and NAT?

i haven't had my coffee yet and I am still a little slow, but how do you "indirectly" access a terminal server?
I keep waiting for them to license anyone who "thinks" about connecting.

Microsoft licensing policies for Windows Server Terminal Services, including the new components that are included in Windows Server 2008, require that in addition to a Windows Server Client Access License (CAL), Microsoft® Core CAL Suite, or Microsoft Enterprise CAL Suite, you must acquire a Windows Server 2008 TS CAL for each user or device that directly or indirectly accesses the server software to interact with a remote graphical user interface (using the Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services functionality or other technology).
