Dual Nic Ip Setting Problem

[andymwood]

Hi,

I've got a problem with an winnt.sif file - I've two NICs in a server - I want to label the two nics, disable one of the nics for the server service, and set the NetBIOS option to 2. This is an unattended W2k3 server installation via ads.

Here's my winnt.sif section:

;

; Networking Section

;

[Networking]

InstallDefaultComponents=No

[NetAdapters]

Adapter1=params.Adapter1

Adapter2=params.Adapter2

[params.Adapter1]

NetCardAddress=^ADS-MACLAN^

ConnectionName="Lan"

[params.Adapter2]

NetCardAddress=^ADS-MACDEPLOY^

ConnectionName="Deployment"

[NetClients]

MS_MSClient=params.MS_MSClient

[NetServices]

MS_SERVER=params.MS_SERVER

[NetProtocols]

MS_TCPIP=params.MS_TCPIP

[params.MS_TCPIP]

AdapterSections=params.TCPIP.Adapter1,params.TCPIP.Adapter2

[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1]

SpecificTo=Adapter1

DHCP=Yes

NetBIOSOptions=0

[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter2]

SpecificTo=Adapter2

DHCP=Yes

NetBIOSOptions=2

[NetBindings]

Disable="MS_SERVER,Adapter2"

The ^^ fields are due to the fact that these values are changed during an ADS install. Now, I know that the MacAddress values are correct and working because teh connection names change - but I don't understand why the NetBindings and the NetBuisOptions are being overlooked

Any help would be appreciated - tia.
