Good point. Im using runonceex. The template is the last command executed: secedit.exe /configure /cfg %CDROM%\USGS\install\security\usgs_sec_xp_091104.STIG.inf /db c:\windows\security\database\usgs_sec_wxpws.sdb /overwrite /log c:\windows\security\usgs_sec_wxpws.log

Im creating an automated CD for use at my office, and being a federal network it requires a security template. I searched the forums and couldnt find anything on when to use them, but I was just testing my CD and windows stopped installing at T-12min. I think this may be because it applied the template, but Im not sure/cant check since it stopped the installation. It didnt freeze... it just stopped. Does anyone know if this [may have] caused the problem? If so, does anyone know when a good time to apply the template? Thanks.

I think the correct directory should be "$1" rather than "$1$".
