#Wds change asus mac address activation key#
We would have to re-enter the activation key for each drive after it was imaged. When imaging the Windows 7 drives we ran into activation issues. We multicast a Windows XP image to each drive in a set, and then repeat the process for each set (each set is a class). We are currently using a FOG server to image our computers. This is why I want to name the computers based on MAC address.Īfter reading my post I think I should provide some more background information. In set 2, the drive imaged for computer 1 would get the name "PC01", the drive imaged for computer 2 would get the name "PC02"Īnd so on and so forth. In set 1, the drive imaged for computer 1 would get the name "PC01", the drive imaged for computer 2 would get the name "PC02" I would also like to name the computers based on MAC address so that each drive in a set gets the correct computer name. I was reading this article:Īnd wanted to know if I could create a stand alone KMS server that is not Active Directory enabled and specify that server on the clients, using for instance The ideal situation would be to image the computers and leave them as part of a workgroup. Is it possible to run a KMS server without creating an Active Directory domain? Creating a domain within the lab environment is less than ideal and for all intents and purposes cannot be done due to the large amount of administrative change that would have to take place. I am running into problems with Windows 7 licensing and would like to deploy a KMS server to handle this task.
There are 20 computers in the lab and I have 10 sets of drives. I have 200 drives to image in a computer lab.
