jfmartel Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 Hello all!I've been working on this one for like 1 week and haven't found anything yet.When im logging to CIW i log on with my domain admin account, so i get full privilege over the network.When deploing workstation thru RIS, my .sif include a section where it tries to join my domain.It in my sif fileive got somehting like this:[identification] JoinDomain=%SERVERDOMAIN% DomainAdmin=%USERNAME% DomainAdminPassword=%PASSWORD%The problem here is when it change the value for the one i provided in the CIW, all value are ok except the password that stays to %PASSWORD%. Then, worst of it, it lock down my account because it tries a lot of time.Anyone has a clue on this one.Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
