A client called this afternoon complaining that many of their users could
not logon to the server (SBS 2000). Connected via TS and the server reports
it is an Eval Copy. However it 'should' be a full version and has been
running for a year and 14 days so even had it been installed using Eval
media it would have given issues long ago surely?
There are no errors in the event log that I can see, just the 'Evaluation
version' text in the SBS MMC and a similar message if you attempt to launch
the licencing applet.
I know that you can easily upgrade an eval version using the full retail
media but as I can't see how this server can have been installed using Eval
media I'm wary of attempting this in case it makes matters worse!
Any ideas gratefully received otherwise it's a call to PSS first thing.
