Is the fourth segment of the serial a zero or an "O" ? I have several  
serials like that that I received through my maintenance program that  
don't work with Server Assistant, but do work via the command line  
with serversetup and with Server Admin once the box is actually  
installed.

Luckily I have a spare serial that I keep rotating around for use  
while installing that does work, otherwise I would have sorted this  
out with Apple before this.
