Hello,
I have a Windows 2019 KMS server that is currently activating Windows 10 clients and Windows servers.
My clients use DNS to discover the KMS server.
My problem is that the Office 2016 won't activate event though their CSVLK key is installed on the KMS server.
On a Windows 10 client that has been activated with KMS : here is the output of ospp.vbs /dstatus :
C:\>cscript "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Office\Office16\OSPP.VBS" /dstatus
