My single terminal server is getting the following error:

Event 21 - "The Terminal Server Licensing server KASHMIR has no
permanent licenses for product 'Windows Server 2003 - Terminal Server
Per Device CAL Token'. Use Terminal Server Licensing administrative
tool to register more licenses."

Win2K3 Standard, member server in a domain. Installed TS Licensing on
member server, activated, then added a 20-user Retail license. The
license is installed correctly, but has issued 0.

The temporary license is about to expire, according to the notices I
am receiving. How can I correct this situation?

Is the Terminal Server (not the Licensing Server!) set to use "Per
User" licensing? The default is "Per Device".
You can check this from Administrative Tools - Terminal Services
Configuration - Server Settings
If it's set to Per Device mode, it will look for a Device TS CAL
and will not issue your Per User TS CALs.

Check this article, it explains that even after you have
switched licensing mode on the TS, your Per User TS CAL count will
not be decremented:
