    Put your server on DMZ. Then activate Public profile for firewall & just open KMS port.
    Or set different port for KMS server. Check that same port should not be in use by other program or fall under range of virtual server configured under router for port forwarding.

    Server is under DMZ, firewall is turned off on everything including modem and KMS port is opened to the server IP. Still not able to work.

    So basically the kms servers- win8kms4.mooo.com, kms.creighton.edu and lunar21.no-ip.org are all same because all when ping in cmd shows its IP to be 147.134.1.42 . But this server kms.dant.net.ru (109.174.76.120) seems to be different.

    Mine is currently that one because I took my uni's address offline till I went over a few things. Once I am sure of these things I will bring it back online to my uni's address :D. As I said in the post I wrote when I took it off line "Till then you can over use the mooo server LOL ". I just redirected my address to the mooo address till later.

    Thanks everybody, now got my own KMS Server too. The Vm does not have internet acces only local, so how can I make it public or even in a vpn for other people to use?

    Hi guys, is there by chance a way to make a windows 7 pro 32bit or a windows 8 32bit vm a kms host with the file provided?

    I followed the methods to the letter but come to the conclusion that the files are only good for a windows 7 pro 64 bit or a windows 8 ent 64 bit kms host.

    (By the way, thanks for the great effort and so course, the great generosity in sharing the methods with the community)

    Edited my summary posts and added the hint to check these settings for proper operation.
