Guest skitzsofrenick Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 Can you have a KMS host that will activate multiple OS's such as Vista, 2008 Std, and Ent? If so, now? The command I know of will wipe the original key if you import a new one.
Guest Darrell Gorter[MSFT] Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Hello, Yes but you need to run KMS that is on Windows Server 2008 or you need to download new version of KMS version 1.1for Windows Server 2003\Windows Vista with SP1 948003 An update is available that installs Key Management Service 1.1 for Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;948003 Plus you need your Volume License key for Windows Server 2008. The different volume license keys for Windows Server will activate different skus of Windows Server 2008 and they will activate Windows VIsta client machines.

Guest skitzsofrenick Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Yeah, I have an ent 2008 server right now and my kms keys, I just need to understand how to get them all into the same OS. Do you just use that vbs script with the command to import the key? It seems that will kick out the previous one though. This is where I am lost, sorry. Thanks for the quick reply.

Guest Darrell Gorter[MSFT] Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Hello, The new keys are hierarchical so they activate the clients as well as servers. So yes you use the script, yes it will kick out the old key, but the new key should activate Windows Server 2008 ( which skus depends on which Windows Server KMS key you use) and Windows Vista clients.

Guest skitzsofrenick Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Oh that is the grouping you are talking about right? Vista, GroupA, GroupB, GroupC...so if we have a datacenter KMS I can add it and that will let us setup any system? One more question though, we currently have a vista KMS and we wanted to setup this new 2k8 server in a VM. When I started the service, apparently the service stopped on the other system but vista installs were not activating...the service on 2k8 server should automate the DNS information right? I know on the Vista system some registry changes needed to be made for it to work.

Guest Darrell Gorter[MSFT] Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Hello, Yes that is the grouping and yes, if you use the Datacenter one you will activate all of them. Starting the new service on the Windows 2008 machine should not have stopped the old service, however it should have registered with DNS so the clients may all be pointing to that machine now. It will have to build up the count to 25 again for the Windows Vista clients before they will activate.

Guest skitzsofrenick Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Does it matter if the service is running or not to import the key? Having issues with the services stopping because of the vista licesnsing server we have. I start on 2008, it stops on vista and vice versa. When I run the command slmgr.vbs servername user pass -ipk key i get the following error. Error 0x80041064 occurred in connecting to server [servername]. any ideas?

Guest Darrell Gorter[MSFT] Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 RE: KMS on 2008 Hello, Hmm that is a WMI error code that usually means the the credentials are not correct for the local machine. Both these machines are on a domain correct? For name are using domain\username syntax or just username? If just username does that username exist as a local account on either machine as well as exist a domain name? So it would appear that slmgr is attempting to communicate with the local machine not the remote machine. are you on the KMS host machine on Windows Server 2008 or on the KMS host machine running Windows Vista?
