Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for providing a mechanism for dynamically switching between the licensing modes on the remote presentation host to handle different kinds of licenses. In one embodiment, the mode switching may be based on the configuration of the users that are connecting to the remote presentation host. In an embodiment, users may be provided with remote presentation session files that define what type of license to be used for the current connection to the remote presentation host. In some embodiments, mechanisms are disclosed to provide the ability to convert a remote client access license from one type to another by using a convertibility matrix.
