[OutHouse]

any VMWware 4.1 gurus around? I need help with a new environment im building and getting the licensing setup. the problem is the eval mode has expired and now i can not start my license server (VM) because of it. plus once i get my license server up, how do i get the two ESX server connected to the license server????

why do you have a license server with 4.1? The licenses are serial numbers.

I'm assuming you are referring to vcenter as your 'licensing server'. Just use the vcenter client to connect directly to one of the esx servers and enter the serial code. Then bring up vcenter and connect it to that esx server. It will assign that license to it, then use vcenter to add the second server and assign it a license.

Finally, build a separate server for vcenter.
