Window Server 2003 Activation Issues...
Hello everyone, my client bought a server 2003 Enterprise Edition (25 licenses/CALs) few years back, the licenses have all been used up since. My client had a cause to install server 2003 and decided to use thesame media (the 25 CALs media) with
the aim of activating it later. The problem now is that : A very critical application has been installed on the server and it's up and running, several attempt have been made to activate the server with no success, the activation grace period has elapsed and
the server no longer allow anyone to login and administer it, the activation grace period reset method (rundll32.exe syssetup,SetupOobeBnk ) has been tried with no positive result. Please help me out; what do i need to do to get this server activated
without having to re-install the OS cause my client can't afford to bring down the server & the application.
Am Simsumm from Abuja, Nigeria.
