Sysprep an automatic hostname completion

Hi !

I have to deploy 200 computers (windows xp) with clonezilla in a non-AD environment. I also have a DNS and static DHCP server.

My only concern is with the computer's hostname ! I have a master computer image with sysprep on it.

I want to fill hostname automatically from the DNS or DHCP server on every computer after cloning. Is it possible with syspred (or by script), and how to do ?

Thx !

Edited by hfrfc


the hostname should be read from sysprep.inf by mini-setup if I am not mistaken. So if you get a script to query your DHCP or DNS for a hostname and set the computername setting in sysprep.inf with that value before you reboot into mini-setup, you should be all done.
