I find it curious when I download the Server 2016 trial, the ISO doesn't come with Version 1709.

Because they are different versions now

After updating 2016, it still shows as version 1607.

Not interested in obtaining a MSDN subscription or a volume license for just lab stuff right now.

You can use Share Activation with Office 365

For RDS and Device CALs monitor it with the Licensing Server.

Tryign to find enough coffee to overcome the time change!

@gjacobse I would love to get back into radio but with the 2 kids hard to find time. Though my older one is starting to show a good science interest so maybe a father and sons building project is not too far off.

Yeah i've been looking at that, but i don't think our current plan supports it.
From here
http://www.mirazon.com/licensing-office-365-in-a-remote-desktop-environment/

Only a few allow "Desktop Virtualization" and we are on Business Premium at the moment

Is that one the server that has the licensing role? As i remember you set it to either Device or User when first setting it up.
Also how does it know if a device is covered by a User CAL or Device CAL? (Think this s whats confusing me )

I usually recommend User CALs.
