Converting 2003 machines to ESXi 4.1 with the latest standalone isn't impossible
I never said that it is impossible.
It is just that I NEVER had to use 4.* for 2003 when I directly used 3.0.3 first
But I very often had to switch to 3.0.3 after 4.* failed.
So I learned not to waste time with 4.x
With Converter newer is not better - just different.
Your license problems are strange - I never needed a license for 3.0.3
