    Just reporting: I activated a second PC just 10 minutes ago via that IPv6 client program with the recommended instructions. There must be something else going on for others like certain ISPs or from certain areas of the world, I'm guessing.

    Don't worry, it'll all get worked out in the end. Don't panic.

    Yeah I can confirm the server is still up and working fine. It sucks that it's IPv6 and its causing so much headache for others though :(

    I agree with you. The log shows cannot authenticated my account. My ISP is HINET in Taiwan.:(

    Update: Well, I did not run that IPV6 client, just set IPV6 DNS to 2001:4860:4860::8888. Then it connected and activated. :) What a surprised!

    Try update "internet time (time.windows)" first - right click clock in system tray, may need to reboot. ;) Paulsen: sorry to hear that. :eek:

    Dudes!!!
    Early today at around 7:25 morning eastern time, I activated my Enterprise with benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net USING THE VAMT 2.0
    Load the tool , your computer will be listed.
    Select your computer and on the right column select activate then KMS
    There is no need to change the port or any other options.
    Select to enter the server name/ip, and then enter
    benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net
    There is no need to use anything else other than the VAMT 2.0
    I have just activated another install. So the realm is still up and running.

    1- go here (gogo6.com/freenet6/registration) and register (need for gogoClient program)

    2- then go here (gogo6.com/profile/gogoCLIENT) and download gogoCLIENT - Basic Version - run in windows 7 compatibility mode to install.

    3- run gogoCLIENT and in for Server Address put this: amsterdam.freenet6.net

    4- select Connect Using the Following Credentials and enter your User and Pass

    5- in Advanced tab select IPv6-in-UDP-IPv4 Tunnel (NAT Traversal) for Tunnel Mode

    6- press Apply then press Connect in Basic tab

    7- go to Status tab and wait till Tunnel Status shows Connected

    now if you did everything correct after this command:
    ping benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net

    you should see ping time. now you can easily active your windows by below commands (remember you should run CMD as Administrator):

    1- slmgr /skms benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net

    2- cscript slmgr /ato

    This worked for me, but i had to change cscript slmgr /ato to cscript slmgr.vbs /ato
