[NTSysADM] KMS question

2014-04-04 Thread Christopher Bodnar
Can anyone tell me if I can add an Office 2013 KMS key to an existing Windows Server 2008 (not R2) KMS host ? Everything I'm reading specifically states that 2008 R2 is supported as a KMS host for this, but nothing I found so far says that 2008 (not R2) isn't. Thanks Christop

If the only DC is 2003, that means the DFL/FFL is at most 2003, so adding another 2003 DC is fine. You will have no issues. Christopher Bodnar Enterprise Architect I, Corporate Office of Technology:Enterprise Architecture and Engineering Services Tel 610-807-6459 3900 Burgess Place
