Server 2003 Product Key

[Guest mmelvin]

I recentlly acquired the bulk of my network servers from my headquarters. I

have a server 2003 machine that needs to be rebuilt but was not sent with the

product licensing info or disks. Is there anywhere I can go or call to try

and find out what the product key is so that I can re-install the OS? Thanks

mmelvin,

 

If you are just inheriting the network, it would probably be a good idea to

start discussions with your software vendor. If you are more than just a few

machines, you are probably under a MS Select or Volume agreement. You should

be able to get your corporate keys from there as well as an inventory of what

you own.

 

If this is just a single license or they bought boxed copies of the OS for

some reason, you can certainly use the apps that Pegasus tossed your way.

 

Good luck.
