  Hi,

  Windows and Office KMS host keys can both exist on the same KMS host.

  Just add the Office 2013 KMS key to your existing KMS host. It will not overwrite your existing KMS configurations, both will remain usable.

  More information about volume activation of Office 2013:

  According to the following support article: Prepare and configure the Office KMS host

  The best practice is to download and install the Microsoft Office 2013 Volume License Pack, which is required for Office 2013 KMS activation, you will be prompted for the Office 2013 KMS host key during the setup, input the product key and activate it online.

  Thanks!

  One question, I am able to run the 'nslookup' to determine the KMS Server.  When I look at that server and see I don't not see a KMS Key listed for Office.  Is there a way within Office to determine if KMS or MAK activation was used?

  Thanks, but that doesn't really answer my question.  I'm looking at how to tell from the client side of Office 2013.  When I do slmgr /dlv on the KMS server I only see details for Windows, not for Office.  Just trying to confirm how things were set up in the past.
