Hi, I hope someone are able to put me on the right track. I work at a pretty big company and we got about 3000 windows servers. We are installing them using unattended installations. My "problem" is that we can´t use DHCP on the server networks so we have to boot Winpe and start some HTA files to set the ip address, servername, timezone etc. Now I would like to get rid of these manual steps. Maybe I could store them in a database and just have a script on the winpe cd that reads the serial number and then look in the database to see which ipaddress and servername that should be used for the particular installation. There must be someone out there who got the same issue... Maybe someone already got scripts for this or another great solution. Regards B

Hi, could anyone help me with an example of a vbscript that reads ip address, subnet mask, and gateway from an SQL database and writes it down to a file in Winpe 2.0. Regards B

Thanks Jazkal, the driver seems to work great. Regards B

Hi, I have a few questions that I hope you can help me with. I would like to deploy W2K3SP1 using Winpe 2.0. Network drivers for NC373i and HP DL380G5, do I have to look for Vista drivers? Do Winpe 2.0 recognize W2K3 drivers? I have tried using the drivers for W2k3 but it doesn´t work. Or is Vista the only operating system that is supported to deploy using Winpe 2.0. Hope you can help me. Regards B
