    Companies wanted people who telecommute (work from home or on the road a lot) to be able to keep their business machines activated while out of the office.

    Most people have their own network because they use a wireless router to get on the internet. Couldn't you just use run KMS activator on your laptop to activate your desktop, and on your desktop to activate your laptop?

    I think apart from the two servers- win8kms4.mooo.com and 147.134.1.42, kms.sjtu.edu.cn is also open now for kms activation..i just ping it. it shows no error.

    Just because you get an answer fro a ping does not mean its open, did you try it, did you activate using it????? The answer is NO just like the other posts in this forum regarding that server. It was open for a few hours but then they closed it and made it campus network only. Please read the thread and forum before posting. Thanks :)

    BTW the mooo.com and 147 servers are the same one, just thats the URL for that IP

    Easy, buy a legitimate retail key or get a MS technet subscription and obtain yourself a legitimate MAK key

    @new_hack... No kms.sjtu.edu.cn is not available for kms activation, use 147.134.1.42 instead.

    very easy to answer: the cn host is closed and therefore you cannot activate against it any more

    Most people still using a wired network!

    And it seems to be that you didn't know anything about an KMS Server! There some requirements before you're able to run KMS Service. Some of that requirements is that you'll have one computer designed as Server, which means as KMS-Server and on the same network with the same Master IP and the same Sub-Net at minimum 25 Client computer connected. If you have that you're able to activate more machines using the KMS Service of your server. If you also like the use the KMS Service for to activate Server OS, you'll need to have at minimum 5 additional Computer running Server OS connected to you local Network. Furthet on you'll need your special Legit Key, which you've to use to activate your KMS Server and you could than your KMS Server could start to activate others in the range that Key is working for.

    So, that's in simple words HOW a KMS Server will work. So as you asking, it's just impossible.

    But this is not a reason to run a kms server on public ip address, fully exposed to the internet. Those people should visit the office at least once in every 180 day interval to reactivate, or use a secure tunnel from the outside world.
