    Indeed, this one is working. Obviously, IPv6 connectivity is needed.

    Error: 0xC004F074 The Software Licensing Service reported that the computer coul

    Works on Windows 8 Enterprise, finally activated :). Should I have to run this command 'slmgr /ckms' to be sure when this KMS server goes down, my windows is still activated?

    For people with problems, stop using the CMD and try to activate in Volume Activation Management Tool :).

    a good question, and if this command "slmgr / ckms" put the server down or have different command such as the beginning of the command is to enable this "cscript"?
