RE: Using Automated Deployment Services (ADS) without volume licensing
Josh,
you could use individual product ID's for each server. In the properties of
each device within ADS, you can set up system a variables such as ^prodID^
and put that variable into the sysprep.inf and it will inject the prod ID
from the variables of that system being built. I believe there are default
templates for injecting sys variables into the sysprep.inf as part of the
deployment process.
