Thanks, my KMS server is in group B, so it should handle my Windows 2008 Standard/Enterprise licenses. I'm trying to enter Office 2010 codes, and only the first one worked (I used the Office 2010 Key Management Service Host for the first key to get it going). I thought I'd need "slmgr.vsb /ilc" and the code, but it won't take any additional codes. Suggestions? A GUI would be helpful to see all this MS licensing crap. Tom

That one caught me. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793412.aspx And remember, you do NOT put a license key in the clients. Just in the KMS host. If you add them to the clients it makes them KMS Hosts, and you have lots of little KMS hosts all over the place. Not that we ever did that, I just heard it was bad.

The KMS host is a Windows 2008 R2 server. I looks like all I need to do is add the licenses, then activate them? I have a number of KMS codes each for Office 2010, Windows 2008, Windows 7, since we purchase them as needed. I recall seeing previous posts where you guys had some issues with KMS and would like to avoid that, if possible.
