Windows 2008 R2 activation

Hello,
I'm trying to activate Windows 2008 R2 Standard on my computer and I get an error. I want to do the phone activation, but I do not get the phone numbers list (only a link to the help file), and I do not get the phone activation screen (with the fields for manual input). I looked for a number on the web but found only the volume license activation numbers. I have a standard license.
I live in Canada...does anybody know the number and how to get the phone activation screen?
Thanks.

This website lists all numbers you may need

  • Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory User can not change their password

    Our AD domain already having two domain controllers with windows 2008 (not R2),  last week we added one more domain controler with windows 2008 R2 for that we run domain prep and forestprep. After this domain no  users can change their password by pressing ALT+CTRL+Del--Change password. Administrators can still reset the password, and if administrator provide the option change password and at next logon, it works, users can reset the password. But after login they can not.
    The error telling the new password does not meet length,complexity, history requirements. We are sure their is no Group policy which setting password/account policy. And even we tried to attach a simple password policy domain level with out complexity.
    Please provide a feedback..waiting for your response.
    Thanks

    additional info: up to Server 2008 R2, Windows ONLY supports ONE Password policy PER Domain. (exept: the R2 supports more pw-policies, but not with gpo, it has to be congifured with ADSI-Editor)
    So, in case you still use the 2008 / R2 - you Need to know that ;))
    regard..
    Stephan Ertel - MCITP/MCSA -
    From Windows 2008(Non R2) and higher is supported for more than one password policy with fine granted password polcy.DFL should be 2008.

  • Windows 2008 R2 Fax Server (Ongoing issue)

    I have a Windows 2008 R2 active directory, fax services work inbound through USB modem - have 50 Windows 7 clients connecting to the fax server and outbound faxing works.  Here's the issue:  After a few days, the clients start getting server disconnected
    on the fax clients.  When I go to the Server, I restart the fax services, even though no event viewer shows any error's.  I do see inbound fax errors of some not received, but these are not consistent when this happens.
    I restart the fax services (by restarting print spooler service), and clients still show disconnected.  If I remove the account from the Windows 7 Fax client and try to add it back - I get the "You do not have security permissions to complete this
    operation. Contact your fax administrator for more information".
    Now, I reboot the windows 2008 R2 server and fax services work again inbound and outbound, and I can reconnect the Windows 7 Fax client that I previously removed.  UAC is turned off, Domain Admins full control to Fax server permission, and domain users
    have fax permissions.
    This issue has happened over the last 3 weeks, I've uninstalled Fax roles, and reinstalled many times prior and followed the fax setup step by step on techarticles - like I stated, the fax services work then stop, and rebooting the server allows the faxing
    to work again.  This server does house Exchange 2010 SP3, but the only thing effected or having issues on this box is Fax services.  Any suggestions to look?

    Hi ITQ_Jhays,
    Please go to Control Panel -> Printers and share the fax printer.
    A similar discussion is for your reference:
    I can't connect to fax server from client computers.
    If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.
    Best Regards,
    Anna Wang

  • Windows 2008 R2 AD auth for computer account

    I am trying to use new computer account created in Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory from my external LDAP client. The LDAP client connection fails to connect displaying error "AcceptSecurityContext error, data 710, v1db1".  The credentials
    and other connection details are all correct. I see the same error code when I attempt to use localhost ldp.exe client from Windows 2008 server.
    The audit failure log for the failed attempt has status code 0xC0000199 for which the description says "The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server." 
    I am able to use computer account in Windows 2003 server from my LDAP client, and authentication works fine. Is there a special security setting required to make it work in Windows 2008 R2?.
    Could anyone please help me here? Thanks

  • Does sysvol migration in windows 2008 R2 DC, requires any specific steps, if the AD Data are stored not in C drive of the server?

    With one of our client, the windows 2008 R2 Active directory data are stored on D drive of the PDC (NTDS DATA, NTDS Logs and SYSVOL) and on the other 2 Dcs, they are on different drives too.
    So my question when we do the sysvol migrations to DFS, do we have to add any specific command or script other than the usual migration commands?

    Hi Zac Kurian,
    As far as I know there don’t have issue when you migrate your SYSVOL which locate on others partition. If you worry about the DFSR health, you can enable the DFSR report then
    monitor the DFSR health status, otherwise, please confirm you have installed the DFS known issue hotfix on your server.

  • 10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Enterprise R2 x64 with Active Directory

    I have successfully installed the 10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Ent. r2 x64 with Microsoft Active Directory Domain Controller but i could not be able to run http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
    Although i have run the http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex on my another Windows 2008 R2 x64 ant WITHOUT Active Directory Domain Controller Role.
    i think its related with AD Domain server role of my server, because i run that on same config and operation without Active Directory Domain Controller role.
    Can anyone help about this issue?
    thanks in advance

    I have experienced the same problem - running 10g Express on a Win 2008 (32-bit). When not being a Domain controller, the install was fine. When installing after the server had been given the Domain Controller role (+the required DNS), it failed. NO FIREWALLS are involved on the server. Seems like Oracle Express has problems being installed in this kind of environment - independent of x32 or x64 bit OS.

  • NTLMv2 in Windows 2008 active or not?

    I have a Windows 2008 R2 member server which has no settings configured for NTLM.
    When I open the local group policy I see that the setting "Network security: LAN Manager authentication level" is "Not Defined"
    If I take a look at the registry location: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    I see that there is no LMCompatibilitysetting present.
    What I want to know is how can I see if there are any NTLM settings active? Microsoft says that in Windows 2008 (r2) by default "NTLMv2 Response only" is active (LMcompatibilitysetting 3)
    If we look in Windows 2012 r2 we see also that this settings is configured as "Not Defined"

    Ok, but why doesn't it show in the register: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
    It only adds an entry when I make a choice for NTLM version in the local group policy
    If I do that it adds: LMCompatibilitysetting
    How can we see that it actually uses NTLMv2?
    Windows, and probably almost all modern computer software too, has defaults coded within the programs.
    These defaults apply even if the settings to set alternate/optional values don't exist. This is a very common practise in modern programming.
    In this example, LSA and the related lsass.exe will operate in default mode when the registry setting is absent.
    There is no value (to the program) to have the default setting recorded in registry - the program doesn't need that, and, to have every default setting recorded in registry is wasteful (increases the size of the registry while delivering no benefit to the
    program).
    It's a separate matter to determine/confirm the actual NTLM methods in use. To do that, you probably need to perform network traffic capture and analysis (e.g. with MSFT NetMon, or Wireshark [formerly known as Ethereal] and examine the packets captured)

  • Solaris 10 authentication on Windows 2008 Active Directory

    Hi,
    Does anyone done it?
    I've do it against a Windows 2003 R2 Active Directory and now in production environment i'm having some issues with the password.
    I'm using only the Active Directory LDAP without Kerberos.
    I'm able to su to the user, getent passwd but everything that as password fails.
    I guess is some configuration issue in active directory, some sync stuff becouse the ldap bind is correctly done, is after the bind that fails.
    Bellow the sshd log with wrong user password.
    sshd[23965]: [ID 293258 auth.error] libsldap: Status: 49 Mesg: openConnection: simple bind failed - Invalid credentials
    sshd[23965]: [ID 800047 auth.info] Keyboard-interactive (PAM) userauth failed[9] while authenticating: Authentication failed
    And with the correct user password.
    sshd[23965]: [ID 800047 auth.info] Keyboard-interactive (PAM) userauth failed[9] while authenticating: Authentication failed
    As you can see the bind is done but windows guys says everything is ok. This is a new implemantation both in Solaris side and Windows side.
    This is how ldapclient is configured.

    The nsswitch.conf has files ldap on both passwd and groups.
    Best regards and thanks for the help you can give

    The problem was in pam.conf that had the module pam_ldap last in the order and it shouldn't be.
    This is how it should be.
    other password required pam_dhkeys.so.1
    other password requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1
    other password requisite pam_authtok_check.so.1
    other password sufficient pam_ldap.so.1
    other password required pam_authtok_store.so.1
    Authentication against 2008 Active Directory working fine now.

  • Monitoring Microsoft Windows 2008 Active Directory by a remoted Agent
