Can't Add CALs in SBS

[yamcha]

Hi.

I was trying to add 5 more CALs in my SBS Server, but when i try to do by the "Launchconsole.exe" and "Licences", i select the option "Add Licences", an error window appear.

"Microsoft Internet Explorer, not Specified error"

And that's all.

I have re-installed the Administration tools but the error is the Same, and i will become Crazy cause the installation of the licences is urgent, i have more users working.

Any Idea?
Please Somebody Help me !!!

yamcha,

Is your SBS configured with Per Device or Per User Licenses? Either way, you should be able to add CAL's using this article:

Thanks WishDiak.

But when i try to add the Licences like you sugested me, it send a dialog box "You must Run the License Wizard".

This License Wizard is in the Program "Launchconsole.exe".
But when i try to start it, the error that i told you appears.

I have been installed a copy of the server in another PC, and it have no problems in that point, if there is no other way to fix the problem, i must to Reinstall all the server.

If you have another Idea, i'll be so Glad whit you.

Thank you anyway.

Hi, I´m Again.

I have resolved the problem.

The SBS Licences must be added with a Wizard located in: "c:\Program Files\Windows Small Business Server\Licensing"
There is a file named "Activation.Exe", this is the Famous Assistant, to add the Licence Code.

I Hope that This Help someone, but for me was a Nightmare.

Thanks For All.

yamcha,

I'm glad you finally figured it out. I'm not as familiar with SBS as with other flavors of Server 2003, so I wasn't aware of this either.

Since others may have this problem in the future, why not take a few minutes of your time and write a FAQ for this forum? That will make the solution easier to find that just having it in this post.
