Introducing WISCON


Recommended Posts

Have you burned your unattended DVD with all the works? Have you wanted to use it on someone elses machine but all the initial settings were how you wanted it to work on your machine. For example the Administrators password, the Initial user login ID, the workgroup and computer name.

Well if you answered yes to any of these question you want to check out WISCON. WISCON is the Windows Initial System CONfigurator.

You can get it Here

This is probably gonna be a dumb question, but I gotta get it clear in my head.

I am assuming that you run this after you have installed you UA CD on another machine?

Just checking, but I love it sofar :)

If the answer to that is yes, then I would be very interested in this app to :D

Yes and no. Actually, if you put this in your CMDLINES.TXT file it will run at T+11. So it's not "after you install" but actually PART of an install (or at least that is how I use it).

In this manner you can build you UA CD (with admin password and machine name) configured the way you like to install on your machines, but if you ever use the CD to help someone else, you can enter the information when WISCON runs and it will be configured the way the person you are helping wants it.

Of course can CAN run it whenever you want. That's just how I use it.

Version 02 is now out.

Here are the updates

Version 02

------------

Added an INI file for configuration. It has the following items under the [CONFIG] section

AutoTimeout - How many seconds before automatically clicking the OK button

NewUser - If 1 will automatically check the "Create New User" box

NewUserID - will fill in the "UserID" edit box of the "Create New User" group

NewUserPassword - will fill in the "Password" edit box of the "Create New User" group

NewUserInAdminGroup - If 1 will put the new UserID in the Administrators group

NewUserAutoLogin - If 1 will set the new UserID to automatically login on the next reboot

EditAdmin - If 1 will automatically check the "Edit Administrator USer" box

AdminPassword - will fill in the "Password" edit box of the "Edit Administartor User" group

AdminAutoLogin - If 1 will set the Administartor to automatically login on the next reboot

EditComputer - If 1 will automatically check the "Edit Computer Settings" box

Owner - Will fill in the "Owner" edit box with this text

Org= - Will fill in the "Organization" edit box with this text

WorkgroupName - Will fill in the "Workgroup" edit box with this text

ComputerName - Will fill in the "Computer Name" edit box with this text

- If you set Autotimeout and all the NewUser fields of the ini file then you can stop using

scripts to create the new user (usually using net user) and autologin (making registry edits

to autologin said user).

- If you only set "Autotimeout" then when the timer runs out the application will do nothing.

This will allow you to have WISCON in your unattended install and if you do not want

to enter new information then nothing will happen. This gives you total flexability.

In the download-link just change the v01 to v02 and you've got the correct file :).

I'm using the program @cmdlines.txt, and I love it :).

It provides me with a hassle-free method of installing PC's.

Oh noes! Massive bug!

The "Workgroup:" label is grayed out along with its' input box when you uncheck the "Edit Computer Settings" checkbox!! :whistle:

Looks like a nice app though, looking forward to trying it out. Great job!
