In most cases, the 90-day trial license of TS makes the system disregard the
licensing limitations. Once you activate TS Licensing and add the actual
licenses, you will not be able to exceed the # of users that you have
licensed. If the License Logging Service is running, then it will compare
the # of TS licenses to the # of licenses installed on the server itself.

I believe that would address the problem you are experiencing in that you
will not exceed the # of licensed users and then every user will have the
group policy restrictions applied to their session.

This is an interesting result of MS offering 'free' TS licenses for 90 days.
