Run the following command to replace the machine name with License Server ( mylicenseserver is the name of your server): Run the following command to set the licensing mode (Note: Value = 2 for Per device, Value = 4 for Per User, we use per-user) $obj = gwmi -namespace "Root/CIMV2/TerminalServices" Win32_TerminalServiceSetting

Install the Remote Desktop Licensing and the Remote Desktop Session Host role services using the following steps: That's working for me on two production machines of small clients who need RDS but can't afford having two servers on their network. I've finally managed to get it working, at least something like the good-old Terminal Services we used to know.

But, once at this point, even if you have proper RDS CALs installed on the server, when the user logs in, receives the message that the trial period is on. We need also to install Remote Desktop Licensing features on the same machine. So, you can install a workgroup-based-box and get the Remote Desktop roles working on it. Deploying Remote Desktop on a standalone Server 2012 box is quite hard, because the guys at Microsoft don't let you run this on a domain-less network and if you do, you can't manage all the settings. I've found myself in the same scenario as you. Obviously a 1 word Yes or No answer isn't that useful to anyone, so the question is really, yes or no, and why? In the case the answer is Yes, then how. What I'm asking is, does anyone know if there is a technical impediment to what I want to do above, other than the deliberate crippling of the 2012 R2 UI for Workgroup users? Would the underlying technologies all still work if I manipulate and control them from a PowerShell script? I'm not asking someone to write that for me. If all of the above could technically be done with the judicious use of the PowerShell, I am prepared to even consider developing all the PowerShell scripts I would need to do the above.

Microsoft says it is "full Windows desktop for Remote Desktop Services client. I believe I need the "RDS Session Host" as this is the guts of "Terminal Server". I do not need any of the fancy pants RDS options, unless Microsoft somehow depends on those features being present.I need to allow 10-20 users per system to have an RDS (TS) session.My question in brief is, can I still somehow, obtain the following end result: However if you skip that wizard and just go check the checkboxes in the main Roles/Features wizard, you can deploy the features, but the UI is not there to configure them, and when you go back to the RDS configuration page on the roles wizard, you get a message saying you can not administer your Remote Desktop Services system when you are logged in as a Local-Computer Administrator, because although you have all admin priveleges you could have (in your workgroup based system), the RDS configuration UI will not accept those credentials and let you continue. This is gross, and so I am trying to find a workaround. So Microsoft's technology is not such much a Cloud Operating System as a Cluster of Unwanted Nodes, needed to support the one machine I actually WANT to deploy. This of course comes in direct conflict with the fact that an Active Directory domain controller should not be the same machine as a terminal server machine. It tells you to create or join a domain first. The Add/Remove Roles and Features wizard in Windows Server 2012 R2 has a special RDS deployment mode that has a rule that says if you aren't on a domain you can't deploy.

With Windows Server 2012 R2 (at least in the preview) the barriers are now severe: With Windows Server 2012, configuring licensing for Remote Desktop Services, is more difficult when not on a domain, but possible still. This has become steadily more and more difficult as Microsoft restricts its technologies further and further in each Windows release. This was very useful, especially for standalone virtual or cloud deployments of a server that is managed remotely for a remote client who has no need or desire for any ActiveDirectory or Domain features. Windows Server 2008 R2 allowed deployment of Terminal Server (Remote Desktop Services) without a domain, and without any insistence on domains.
