In Terminal Services it still shows as 2 maximum connections, would enterprise allow more connections do you think?

No - unless you install the full TS services, only 2 connections. When 2003 is installed without the TS server component, you get the old Windows 2000 "Administrative Mode" TS - 2 concurrent connections. When you do install the full TS server, you get as many connections as you are licensed and/or the server can handle.

add/remove programs =>windows components=> terminals services, you will also have to install a license server or in 120 days the server will stop working
