RIS autoincrement number

[zoomzeth]

Hi all,

I've recently installed a RIS on Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition.

The problem that I'm facing is that the RIS server doesn't increment my computer number. So every time I install a new pc, it has the same name as I configured it into Remote Installation Services Properties.

Is there a way that I can enter manually the computer number when RIS starts the installation?

My ristndrd.sif file looks like this:

[data]

floppyless = "1"

msdosinitiated = "1"

OriSrc = "\\%SERVERNAME%\RemInst\%INSTALLPATH%\%MACHINETYPE%"

OriTyp = "4"

LocalSourceOnCD = 1

[setupData]

OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect"

SetupSourceDevice = "\Device\LanmanRedirector\%SERVERNAME%\RemInst\%INSTALLPATH%"

OemSkipEula = yes

[OSChooser]

Help ="Automatically installs Microsoft Windows XP Professional without prompting the user for input."

I saw that in ?:\RemoteInstall\OSChooser\English is a file called custom.osc, but I don't know how to add this file into RIS setup process.

Did anybody encountered this issue?

Thanks in advance.
