:
| Will be deploying about 50 copies of XP Pro. Using 2003 Std as Domain
| controller for RIS. I have about 50 individual OEM copies of the xp
| software each with unique keys.
|
| How do I use RIS to maintain unique keys on 50 different machines and then
| go about Activating with MS?
|
| Also, what if I must redploy a messed up users desktop with RIS and I have
| already activated a particular copy, what then?
|
| Any help is greatly appreciated.
