Does this mean the keys we are getting now are only good for one (or two) installs instead of the normal 10 that you get with an MSDN subscription (or whatever the number is now that they won't say).
From: James Hill [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 8:29 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Office 2010 is up on Technet/MSDN For those of you that might be looking to implement it soon and are going to use KMS the following may be handy to know:- 1. You'll need to download and install KeyManagementServiceHost.exe to setup an Office KMS host. This is different from a Windows KMS host. 2. Install it on Windows 2008 R2, 2003 (but check the docs as some extra work is required in this case) or Windows 7 Volume License editions. Oddly, it is NOT supported on Vista or Windows 2008 Server. 3. The files from technet are not enabled for MAK or KMS use. You'll have to wait until they are available on the VL site next week. The MAK and KMS keys are up on the Licensing site but no files yet. We are going to be deploying companywide very soon. Our Windows 7 deployment has been on hold as we'll roll both out at the same time.
