webmedic Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 @ Webmedic:English is not my first language... when I typed "No thanks", i meant something like "you're welcome"!Anyway, I do am interested because you said that you accessed a share in the T-12 stage. Did you? And how?Oh sure thats no problem. Sorry for the missunderstanding.Well the issue is that micrsoft left out some info in the system hive so you need to edit it and add back the missing info.To fix this problem, edit the Hivesys.inf file on your Windows XP distribution share, and add the following missing statement after the HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\HwOrder",,0x00000012 line:HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\Order",,0x00000012this will allow you to do installs from t-12 and t-13 since the rest of the networking is up and running. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterdawn Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 Okay thanks I'll try it ASAP! This way I can import tweaks and install hotfixes from the network to the default user-profile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webmedic Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 no problem thats one of the exact same reasons i use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterdawn Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Okay, it works, but only under specific conditions:It does not work when I try to connect using: net use \\10.0.0.152\dist /user:unattended unattended.But when I try net use \\10.0.0.152\dist enter and then type unattended and password unattended, then it does work!You have these same "problems"? Ofcourse, this way user-input is required and thus my installation will not be unattended.Note: I'm referring to the t-12 stage and not regular GUI-mode.

webmedic Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 well no i dont have this as I have my setup files on my linux box and I specificly have it setup to use share for security. This no user name or password is required. I would not mind working with you to find a solution to this though.I'm sure you already know it but here is the complete syntax for that stagenet use <drive letter>: \\<server>\<share> /user:<domain>\<user> [<password>] /persistent:no It may be that it really wants a drive letter or something like that. I have not tried the above line yet but I did write it down as part of my documentation for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterdawn Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Btw, I fixed the "if not errorlevel..." line of my script, because it would not properly detect when the errorlevel is not 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 2afterdawn: Provide reference computer, for example if U R connecting from PC1 to PC2, use PC2 account, e.g. /user:PC2\user password Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterdawn Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 @soulin: yes I've just figured that out myself! thanks anyway!this works:net use \\10.0.0.152\dist unattended /user:10.0.0.152\unattendedStrange that you only need to don't need to do this normally (ie at GuiRunOnce) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not tried the above line yet but I did write it down as part of my documentation for this.This is not entirely true, i cannot use the <drive letter>: at all. If i run net use /? i don't see it listed here either. Are you using another version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilou_Gateux Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 @AfterdawnJust one suggestion.Can you edit your first post starting this topic and put here the working script:I'm a bit confused with the one to use.You can add the edit tag (with date) to let the users know you have enhanced your script.and nice works, i will keep it for my RIS install to connect to my network share after OS install to launch software installs.@soulin & AfterdawnThanks for NET USE issue solved@staplesThanks for the MAP DRIVE script@webmedicThanks for the hivesys.inf entries to solve the problem. Hope it works also for 2K. gonna check this...I learn and learn more with members of MSFN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afterdawn Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 @Bilou_Gateux:Okay thanks for the tip, I added the "edited ..." line.Also, I'm not changing my whole first post, otherwise all the first replies won't make sense anymore right? A link to the most recent version should be enough in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
