Hi all,Ive only joined today so please forgive if everyone has moved onto bigger and better things. im stubborn you see!!!! ive was successful in the past when running ris on its own separate server but connecting via AD and for DNS to a DC. Ran risetup in order to just make a basic copy of an xp image on the RIS server i can always get the Remote install tabe on the RIS DC where i can then locate my xp image installed. i can always select F12 and it does prompt for my logon details This is my issue, no matter if i use an administrators account or create a user with domain admin privileges it still says logon issue at my client pxeclient pc. why???????? 3 weeks works down the drain.
