Hi I have recently a server to do run RIS. Its all working correctly apart from the runonce commands. This is my answer file- ;SetupMgrTag [Data] AutoPartition=1 MsDosInitiated="1" UnattendedInstall="Yes" floppyless="1" OriSrc="\\%SERVERNAME%\RemInst\%INSTALLPATH%" OriTyp="4" LocalSourceOnCD=1 [setupData] OsLoadOptions="/noguiboot /fastdetect" SetupSourceDevice="\Device\LanmanRedirector\%SERVERNAME%\RemInst\%INSTALLPATH%" [unattended] UnattendMode=FullUnattended OemSkipEula=Yes OemPreinstall=No TargetPath=\WINDOWS FileSystem=LeaveAlone NtUpgrade=No OverwriteOemFilesOnUpgrade=No [GuiUnattended] AdminPassword=* EncryptedAdminPassword=NO AutoLogon=Yes AutoLogonCount=1 OEMSkipRegional=1 TimeZone=290 OemSkipWelcome=1 [userData] ProductKey=J4F7C-3BPY9-47VY6-2QYHP-6VWYT FullName="Owner" OrgName="" ComputerName=%MACHINENAME% [Display] BitsPerPel=24 Xresolution=800 YResolution=600 [TapiLocation] CountryCode=64 Dialing=Tone AreaCode=03 [RegionalSettings] LanguageGroup=1 SystemLocale=00001409 UserLocale=00001409 InputLocale=1409:00000409 [identification] JoinDomain=%MACHINEDOMAIN% DoOldStyleDomainJoin=Yes [Networking] InstallDefaultComponents=Yes ProcessPageSections=Yes [RemoteInstall] Repartition=Yes [OSChooser] Description="Windows Professional - Standard Installation" Help="This will install Windows Professional in a standard configuration."

Any help on what I'm doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. The batch file just installs all the windows xp updates and adobe reader ETC. Regards Adam
