new user not admin plus other questions

[SElsner]

Hello,

I have added a new user on the unattended panel, being a member of the admin group. But somehow it does not work, the user is only in the standard user group after installation. This is the relevant section from Last Session_u.ini. The Last Session.ini is attached too.

[users]

Administrator|||True|Administrators|#######|False|True|True

Guest|||False|Guests||True|False|False

neuron|neuron||True|Administrators|########|False|True|False

What could be wrong here?

Other questions are:

0) When installing from the generated unattended iso I am still asked to specify partition size. Any way to circumvent this? So it is really unattended.

1) How can I remove the remote assistance link from the start menu?

2) How would I turn off the time synchronization with internet servers?

3) can I somhow add trusted sites to the IE configuration?

4) I would like to turn wake on lan on, is this possible in nLite

5) Taskbar settings like : "Auto-hide the taskbar" and "keep the taskbar on top" are missing unless i missed something.

Thank you for your help

Sebastian

For your user, be sure to start with a fresh set of files. nLites assumes your "new" user does not exist. If it does (for instance, you run nLite a second time on the same set of files), settings will not be applied properly in resulting OS.

0): nLite doesn't handle this. You will need to edit the winnt.sif manually after nLite has processed files but before making/burning iso. Search for "autopartition"

3) and 5) can be done via reg entries.

4) is a Bios setting, independant from OS-> does not apply.

Hey,

thanks for your reply!

For the record, I have found the issue. You are not allowed to name the computer the same than the autologin user. The user will be created in this case but is not added to the Admin group.

I also got the autopartition to work.

Cheers

Did not spring to mind but it's a known issue indeed (or was it computer name and computer owner that can't be the same). Glad you figured it out by yourself.
