The commands will activate Windows Vista Edition against kms.vbs.net.cn KMS
server (setup by individual user which availability and reliability are not certain,
another alternative KMS host is vbs.net.cn). Its a private KMS server for Volume
License 2.0a activation but have been setup by individual and released to public
Internet usage.
5. If there is error, disable the Windows Vistas firewall, or check out this page for
possible resolution.
6. To check the activation status, use the following command:
cscript C:\windows\system32\slmgr.vbs -dlv
If successful activation, you will see screen like this:

After the VLK is verified in KMS host, the Windows Vista client will be activated and
can be used for 180 days, and requires re-activation once every 180 days. If after the
activation expires, and the client doesnt activate again in 30 days grace period, Windows
Vista will go into reduced functionality mode. Beside, Windows Vista Ultimate edition is
unable to activated by this way.
Another problem is whether there is any open public KMS servers around on the Internet
for activation, as using KMS server in the public domain is illegal. As most public KMS
servers are setup by individual users who may need 25 clients to activate his or her own
copy of Vista, so the availability of the public Internet KMS host is very uncertain. The
fact is that many KMS servers have came and taken down such as
peterpwq.vicp.net:1688, sito.kmip.net, binbin.xicp.net:1688, 220.133.135.222 and
59.39.163.239:1688 (1688 is the default port for KMS activation, and can be skipped).
However, you can setup and create your own KMS server (if you dont have extra
computer, VMWare or Virtual PC virtual machine can be used) and invite others to
activate the Windows Vista together by using that KMS host, as KMS server requires at
least 25 computers in order to start activating any of the Vista machines.
