RE: KMS on 2008

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hello,
Hmm that is a WMI error code that usually means the the credentials are not
correct for the local machine. Both these machines are on a domain
correct? For name are using domain\username syntax or just username? If
just username does that username exist as a local account on either machine
as well as exist a domain name?
So it would appear that slmgr is attempting to communicate with the local
machine not the remote machine.
are you on the KMS host machine on Windows Server 2008 or on the KMS host
machine running Windows Vista?

Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
