Serv-U - the best FTP server, I ever know.

But there is one problem...

It's packed with WISE installer and after silent install (/s) it automaticaly reboots my computer.

Does anybody know how to avoid it?

This is what worked for me...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx\0019]

@="Serv-U FTP-Server 6.0.0.1"

"1"="C:\\Install\\Serv-U_FTP_Server_6.0.0.1\\Serv-U_FTP_Server_6.0.0.1.exe /S"

"2"="taskkill /F /IM SERVUA~1.EXE"

"3"="taskkill /F /IM SERVUT~1.EXE"

I have Serv-U 6.1.0.0 preinstalled from my unattended disc but you don't need to bother with any switches - I just installed it on my machine, registered it and setup all the user accounts etc and then copied the entire Serv-U folder into $OEM$\$Progs\Internet\

If you only want the license to be copied (and not all the settings):

1. install it on your own machine;

2. enter in your own license;

3. copy %programfiles%\serv-u\ServUDaemon.ini to your unattended setup;

4. add a line that copies this file to the installation directory after silent installation;

5. don't forget to kill ServUAdmin.exe after installation, it pops up.

//edit

if you want the wizard to popup the next time you run serv-u, make a file named "ServUAdmin.ini" which contains the following:

[GLOBAL]
FirstTime=1

copy this file together with ServUDaemon.ini to the destination directory after installing serv-u silent

//edit2

i'm sorry for digging up such an old thread
