vlmcsd is a replacement for Microsoft's KMS
server It contains vlmcs a KMS test client,
mainly for debugging purposes, that also can
"charge" a genuine KMS server designed to run
on an always-on or often-on device,e.g.
router, NAS Box, ... intended to help people
who lost activation of their legally-owned
licenses, e.g. due to a change of hardware
(motherboard, CPU, ...)
