Thanks to all who chimed in.
All helpful responses.
I went with the quickest way which was a $7 adapter to slave the drive
then use LinNeighborhood to send to a local $erver on Knoppix.
Currently I'm writing a quick PHP app to help me manage our new M$
licenses (we have developers).
<rant>
You know, what really get's me mad about this is that M$ requires us to
keep up with all these product keys, licenses, and activations but they
don't have a way for us to keep up with said items.
We have customers that are on the M$ platform and we have no control
over that. That requires us to keep up with them for compatibility.
We get 10 licenses for M$ Office 2003. We get 5 PK's for 2 activations
each. It grows from there. I think I have 40 PK's each with a
different number of activiations each that I need to keep track of and
on which machine it's installed on. Like I don't have enough to do.
MS lost me years ago as a personal customer. They've done it as a
professional customer now.
