Server 2008 R2 License compliance check in workgroup
I am getting this error on the server:
The server did not finish checking the license compliance. If the server is joined to a domain, make sure that the server can connect to a domain controller.
This server is not on a domain and only has eight users. Four of the users are TS clients, the others are local and are for testing.
I cannot remove it from the domain if it is not in a domain.
Can anyone help?

Hello,
According to the Microsoft KB below, this warning message indicates a failed Foundation check. So, is this a Windows Server 2008 R2 FOUNDATION?
Referring to:
Troubleshooting Windows Server 2008 R2 Foundation
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee526849(v=WS.10).aspx
If this server is indeed a Windows Foundation server, Id recommend you contact the OEM regarding this problem.
I would also suggest you take a look at this and learn how to turn off the "Foundation Check" if you want to.
Check for Licensing Compliance is Incomplete
