I don't think Microsoft would sue one of their customers just because they made a mistake configuring a firewall. You don't treat your customers that way if you want to keep them!!
1) they will be notified, they will close the server and secure the ports, they will be asked by MS if they require help if needed, they will continue on. Internally from a good entity , An investigation by the entity will decide if there was wrong doing or an IT mistake etc etc. (most of the time its a kid at school being suspended for opening it to public). and next public kms server comes online, rinse repeat.
Very simple really. Before an organization is granted a volume license, they sign a legally binding contract which states, among other things, that they will not disclose their product keys or activation infrastructure to unauthorized people, and they will not install and activate more copies than they have paid for. These agreements are enforceable in a court of law, much more so than the standard "click to agree" EULA found at the consumer level. When Microsoft becomes aware of a violation of this magnitude there are very real and expensive penalties that the violator can be hit with. Of course one consideration is whether it was done on purpose or by accident.
you have to windows OS install on your machine and .net frame work 4 @Faikee , i just activated the msoffice 2013 on 8.1 usin kmspico but unable to activate my 8.1 pro wmc ..... are host closed ?
Is there any real developer value in this (public) Kms server other than it being a short-lived activation tool??? ...that is to say, by having access to an actual V6 KMS server can the developers extract any helpful info from it that would assist them in creating a VM emulator or offline activation solution? or once it's gone, it'll be like it never existed in T minus 180 days?
So I must redo this after 6 months? I already have 3 month one so will there be a permanent activator in future? Side not : Why would the OP use x86 with 4 GB Rem :O
If you only have 4gb of ram, you probably don't have a cpu capable of running x64 version of windows 8.x
Is the server working right now? Do i have to install Rollup update in order to Activate the 8.1? is it possible to activate through cmd just like Windows 8? *Edit : is it safe to use this KMSpico?
Thanks, I will try that. I only copied data.dat and tokens.dat from the \2.0 folder. I'll try copying the whole spp folder...
Is the server working right now?YES Do i have to install Rollup update in order to Activate the 8.1?NO is it possible to activate through cmd just like Windows 8?YES *Edit : is it safe to use this KMSpico?YES
how can I check the activation status? Like as shown in the screenshot? The 'windows script host' window?
You don't need to back up all the files. In fact, it would probably cause some background errors if you did. The SPP will regenerate your tokens upon verifying them anyway.
