all the documents on CUSRMGR.EXE seem to point to refere to administrator accounts. does it work on normal local accounts too..? can i get a copy of CUSRMGR.EXE put it in my ris install files run the command after the accounts are created & then remove the CUSRMGR.EXE file?

right.. ive got the following accounts being setup from my RunOnceEX command. how do i set the accounts so the password cannot be changed & account dosent expire..? net user Staff Password /ADD net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited net user Student Password /ADD net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited

ive been on the wpi page but when you link to the documentation for how do i install wpi ? on this page http://www.wpiw.net/help.htm it links you to the about page & not a installation page.. basically i want to know how to get wpi GUI open so i can configure it.. cheers PS, does this work with RIS ok.? do i have to point to a script from cmdlines.txt to run this on the install like I do with my current RunOnceEX.? im sure your all fed up with answering these questions. i am on other forums on msfn but there will always be newbies & you lot have the knoweledge..

ill have a look cheers

Hi All, Basically i want to be able to have a load of apps installed but first I want the installer to be able to select the apps to be installed prior to unattended install. What is the best way of doing this... currently I have my base apps installed through RunOnceEX. i would like somehing similat to this but with an options page so the user can select what they want installed..

Does it run through the sysprep routine when you boot the PC up after imaging but it dosent automate the answers you put in the inf file? If so this could be because you are saving the sysprep files to the wrong location on the HDD. make sure you have a folder called c:\sysprep & your inf file & sysprep files are located in this before running it.. if the files are not in this location when the PC reboots it will not be able to read the inf file.

ill ignor it.. thanks for the info.. its just anoying to go to windows update & find there is 1 outstanding.. Id rather it be outstanding than it screw up my ris installs though.

Right, i have got some nice working RIS installs with latest ryman & BTS driver packs. i tried integrating this update kb/912945 into each install but its all gone pete Tong. XP installs fine but after the reboot it asks to save a html file (if i recall its OOBE related). when you click save the install freezes & dosent go any further. this problem is the same on all my ris installs i have integrated this update on. i have managed to roll some of the i386 directories back to before this update & they are now fine. what casued the problem & has anyone else had it..? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912945

anyone.. Anyone got a silent install for real player gold/10 whatever is the latest?

just what I was looking for & a little more.. cheers roguespear. the others will come in handy.

as the title says. what do you call the answer file & were does it have to be located when rireping?

Hi Guys, right i have a trusted Site I need to add to IE. I have done this manully & have found they registry string it puts in. i now need to get this trusted site for all user preferably going into the default user profile. Where can I put this string in the registry for all user to have as a trusted site or is there another way?

cheers Just working on it now...

ive found this one to be pretty good.. http://www.youngzsoft.net/cc-get-mac-address/ leave it scanning to pickup machines which switch on later in the day or on other days. then click on the correct unit you wish to wake up & hit the button. seems to be working a treat..

anyone know the key to remove this from the systray so i can add the remove string to my install.. cheers

batch files is about my limit at present.. anything more GUI

anyone know of a good bit of software to do this..? ive downloaded a few from the web but they are all P**h. ideally i want to be able to put in a host name & click wake up & it does it.. i can apreciate it may need to scan the lan for MAC address's but after its done that I just want to enter or search for host from a list & tell machine to wake up.

Just run riprep for the first time & got a message saying that reparse point found. the folder will not be copied to the installation image. it is suggessted that you write a script to recreate this point after a user's initial loggin. has any one come across this, know what to do & got a script to do this whatever it is? cheers

Anyone got a silent install for real player gold/10 whatever is the latest?

Hi Fencer, does the new risult fix the bts cleanup issue?

folowing on on thie autologin question.. when the above is set in the sif file. what account is used to auto login with? I presume its the local admin account. what if you want it to login with a specific domain account.?

thanks rouguespear, I have s server on that site i can use it was mainly to see if it would work across a wan link & how long it took.. Ill get ris instaleld on that site.. this was tested on a 10MB leased line link.. were going to 100MB soon so ill retry it then.

does seem a bit better. the last one i had to specify a refresh rate & if the moitor didnt like it it would change the res or anything. at least this onree you can specify res & bits & let it atuo set refresh rate.. nice cheers

right, am trying to get Ris to work across our wan to see how it works.. Have created a computer account as we did for local Ris installed PCs. this is done in ad by specifying the GUID & a valid computer name. i have double checked this account in AD & have recreated it with a different computer name. I keep getting the error above on the last blue screen where it should state the computer name it will be given just before installation starts. any one have any ideas what is causing it & a solution? google dosent have much on this error code & nor does support.microsoft as per usual.
