unattendedxml

Please close, wrong subforums.

Hi all, i have a new Dell R210-II system with two hard drives. I try to partition one drive with a 60 gigabyte C: (for Windows) and the remainder for D:\ The second drive is untouched. However the unattended WDS install halts during the first stage of the install

Well the XML does not contain SENSITIVE*DATA*DELETED for this user. Should it be like that? It only hides the domain logon password, if I would use that. Deleting the XML is part of the solution. However, it is still not save since you can restore the XML after deletion with the help of a couple tools.

Thank you - I have created a user with access to only this share. It works. I find this user/password in the XML file to be a design flaw. THANK YOU!

Hi, when deploying Windows 2008 R2 through WDS, a unattend.xml file is left. This exposes login to the WDS server: <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Setup" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" processorArchitecture="x86"> <WindowsDeploymentServices> <Login> <WillShowUI>Never</WillShowUI> <Credentials> <Username>Administrator</Username> <Domain>domain.local</Domain> <Password>password</Password> </Credentials> </Login> <ImageSelection> <InstallImage> <ImageName>win7</ImageName> <ImageGroup>win7</ImageGroup> <Filename>win7std.wim</Filename> </InstallImage> <WillShowUI>Never</WillShowUI> <InstallTo> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <PartitionID>1</PartitionID> </InstallTo> </ImageSelection> </WindowsDeploymentServices> Is there an option to hide the WDS server login info? Does the login info have to be an administrator of the WDS server/domain? Even after deleting the unattend.xml in C:\Windows\Panther\ I do not trust the login info to be safe
