There was a bug in one release of 7.6 where it pulls the WRONG MAC address from the server BIOS in Win2K8 (does not happen on Win2K3) and was not possible to control; they were using an outdated cmd line utility that obtained a different response from the OS. I think it was fixed in a patch, but we bailed on Win2K8 for that and other reasons and stayed on Win2K3. There should be a KB article on it.

We are running on Wintel 2K8 and VM ESX platform as a guest OS. The HostID that shows up in the top right corner of the License screen is 005056880000. In the properties of the active NIC for the AR server, it reads: 0050568800FF. Does Remedy interpret the FF as 00 in its HostID value? Our support partner is telling me that we can enter any HostID into the NIC properties, which I don't see as an available option.
