I have a site that has a Windows 2000 terminal server/license server and 6
MaxTerms (thin client workstation) that run W2K.
Would they grab TSCALS from the Unlimited Pool or do they use a licensed
TSCAL from my open licenses pool?
To me, it looks like they are using a paid for open licensed tscal, not the
free/unlimited ones. Is that right?

Only W2K Pro and XP Pro clients receive a free TS CAL from the built-
in pool of licenses.
According to the information here:

a MaxTerm runs either CE.Net, XP embedded or Embedded linux.
That's why your thin clients take a purchased TS CAL.
