crowe80 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I have a sysprep file set up to work with Mysysprep.exe, basically what it does is it reboots the PC after I have the image I want and prompts me for a few things such as domain, domain password, domain username and then domain again. I have everything set up to autofill except the password. I want only the admin people to be able to put the password in but when I type it, it shows what I'm typing. Is there a way using mysysprep to prompt me for this to allow me to type in a password but it types asteriks instead of showing what I'm typing? Below is how I have my sysprep file set up. component name="Microsoft-Windows-UnattendedJoin" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">- <Identification>- <Credentials> <Domain>%Enter A domain {THIS IS MY DOMAIN ACCOUNT}%</Domain> <Password>%Enter Password%</Password> <Username>%Enter Username {ADMIN DOMAIN USERNAME}%</Username> </Credentials> <JoinDomain>%Enter A Domain To Join {DOMAIN NAME}%</JoinDomain> </Identification> </component>
MrJinje Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Here is a link to the developer's website (i think)http://www.tsaysoft.com/mysysprep2/ Edited August 8, 2012 by MrJinje
crowe80 Posted August 8, 2012 Author Posted August 8, 2012 I had not seen that link where there was a contact. So thanks for sending that my way. I will contact the developer to see if this is possible. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
MrJinje Posted August 8, 2012 Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) Did you notice this about halfway through ? Another feature is designed specially for password fields. If you put the attribute [password] right after the first % mark, the dialog will mask user input and the user needs to type the password twice to confirm. For example, <Password>%[password]Please input Admin password%</Password>So change your snip to this and it should work<Password>%[password]Enter Password%</Password> All you were missing was the '[password]' Edited August 8, 2012 by MrJinje
crowe80 Posted August 8, 2012 Author Posted August 8, 2012 Yes you are correct, that worked. Totally overlooked that. Thank you so much! I wish every fix was that easy
