KMS Office Activation Connecting to China

Tried to activate office using the Ohook option initially, but it doesn't seem to be changing anything beyond the "Initial Grace Period". I went ahead and tried the "Online KMS" option for just Office, and I received a notification that the process was trying to connect to "kms.itsjzx.com:1688". The script stdout was saying something about trying to connect to KMS on port 1688, but why is it trying to use this server in China instead of running a local KMS?

  • The ohook option won't change the license info but the office will be activated whenever it runs. If you use the check activation option in MAS, it will tell you about this.
  • As the option clearly says, it's an online KMS option, which means it connects to public KMS servers from all over the world. If you want Offline KMS, use KMS_VL_ALL.

D'oh, thanks for the explanation. I figured it wasn't likely to be anything malicious, but seeing it trying to connect to a Chinese server was a bit surprising.
