timatlee Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 HelloI've been able to get RIS to do almost everything I need to deploy XP to our desktops, but two final questions remain...I'd like RIS to ask me what to name the computer, instead of assigning a computer name to it. I've been able to get this done through sysprep, but that's the only reason I would run sysprep after RIS finishes its install.The second issue... sysprep (and other commands) only run once I've logged in once. I'd like to have a "runonce" that doesn't require a user being logged in, but depends on the network device to be and the computer joined to the domain.Thanks in advance!
