I have a 2008 server that I can access via remote desktop as I am the domain admin at my work environment. We are installing some software that will require a handful of users to login and use the software. I've always been confused to what type of licenses I need and the steps to install Remote Desktop Services. Do I just need to buy 5 CALs and install them once I install the required features? It looks like I'll need to install the Remote Desktop Session Host and Remote Desktop Licensing Service? Do I need any license for this part of the install, or does the 5 CALs cover me if I only need 5 concurrent users max?

Yes you need to install both Remote Desktop Session Host and Remote Desktop License Server. Please use the steps mentioned in this article to setup your license server.

You would need as many number of Per User licenses as many users you want to have access to RDSH.
