MAC Address + UNC Pathname (6)

Scroll Prev Top Next More

This Installation Code combines the MAC address with the UNC pathname (details)

 

Pros/Cons

+ After reinstallation of Windows, the MAC address does not change

+ If an image tool is used, the MAC address is still different

+ Good within a network, because the MAC address must be unique

+ Allows only one installation on one machine

- See considerations above for multiple network cards

- Restricted use in network environment with Windows 98 / NT machines

 

Recommendation

Should be used for enterprise users because disk imaging is often used to set up multiple machines and a reinstallation of Windows does not need a new licensing.

 

 

 

This code results in a copy protection error if you work on the server AND on the workstation. It only works if the server is used as a dedicated server. Use code 1-3 in case of a problem.
