Sharing same Terminal Server Windows Account?

[7777]

Hello, are there sharing issues or is it ok (security also) to share one
individual Terminal Server Windows Account among users in the possible event
that multiple users would log in at the same time sharing the same session?
Thanks in advance.

Are they accessing the same account from one machine only.
If yes, then you need to put your TS into the 'Per Device' licensing mode.

If not, then you are not being compliant with your EULA.
So, either you should have different users accounts for all the users and
buy as many CALs as the number of users (and set the TS Licensing mode as
'Per User'), or you need to purchase the number of CALs as many devices you
have (and put TS Licensing mode to 'Per Device' ).

Hope that helps!
Thanks
