3.1.2 WSS2003 Activation
Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 must undergo its activation pro- cedure before you start using it. The activation procedure is possible via the internet or by phone. In this chapter, the procedure for activating WSS2003 via the Internet is described. Before starting the procedure, make sure the system is available for connection to the internet.
Note: Microsoft makes the system available for use for 30 days without activating it. If the user fails to activate WSS2003 within 30 days, on the 31st day, the user will not be able to log in and then must activate to continue use.
