Creating New Accounts & Changing Computer Name

[Marthax]

hi everybody!

I'm almost finished with my Xplode Installation now, but i still have the users part left. I've checked the forum and the documentation and I managed to write down the commands to create new user accounts, but i got one thing remaining though. How do I make these different accounts visible in the Xplode selection so that I can choose which account i want to add? Right now, there's just a box and an empty space to the right of it. I want to create a comment like "User1", "User2" and so on for each user.What command do I have to use to make this possible?

I tried using <execute> long with display and simply enter my comment in the "desc" part, but this on the other hand requires me to run a program.

I also wonder if anyone knows the command to change the computer name. Is this possible or do I have to create a new CD for each computer?

I'm using XplodeSelectInstall.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Marthax

Here is a snippet from the sample XML that comes with XPLODE

<item display="» Adding users to #COMPUTERNAME#">

<addgroup display='Adding group "Cowboy Bebop"'>

<groupname>Cowboy Bebop</groupname>

<extra>/COMMENT:"It's them bounty hunters!"</extra>

</addgroup>

<adduser display="Adding Spike">

<username>Spike</username>

<password>swordfish</password>

<group>Administrators</group>

<group>Cowboy Bebop</group>

<extra>/FULLNAME:"Spike Spiegel"</extra>

</adduser>

<adduser display="Adding Jet">

<username>Jet</username>

<password>hammerhead</password>

<group>Cowboy Bebop</group>

<extra>/FULLNAME:"Jet Black" /COMMENT:"When the black dog bites, he don't let go!"</extra>

</adduser>

ok, and which part changes the computer name?

[Wraith]

There's no built-in functionality within XPlode to change computer names.

You're going to have to do some research in order to find out how to do it.

ok, any hints on where I could find such info?

Search the unattended forum?
