"I lived through the exact same disaster."

Might it be easier to just get an OS-level subscription to MSDN ? I got one of those a few years ago for rsync.net and it was quick and easy to purchase ... and then we had everything.

Certainly more expensive to get MSDN than a single OS license, but it's not that expensive ...

MSDN is not licensed for production, I assume you mean you're using it just for development and testing.

MS Partner on the other hand is licensed for internal-only production use.

Oh, right.

Yes, we just used it to test clients against rsync.net.

Recommended (MSDN, that is), if you're in that situation...
