Thanks Pat I am using Windows XP and according to that link: In Microsoft Windows XP, the maximum length of the OEMPnpDriversPath value is 4,096 characters. I am not at work at the moment so I cannot see how long the path is but I will check it out tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback as always.

Hi, This is what I need too. I tried to edit install.pl to use this but it did not work. I changed 'autolog.pl --logon=0' to 'autolog.pl --logon=0 --user=ourlocaladmin'. Where do I specify this option? TIA Brad -Original Message- From: Mario Gzuk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent:

--logon=0 mean don't autologon; try --logon=1 Also, instead of modifying the install.pl; add a line to your install batch (base.bat?) like this: todo.pl autolog.pl --logon=1 --user=localadmin .reboot -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. Atom Powers Systems

That command should work, as long as it is run immediately before the name of the admin account is changed. This is what I do: In _meta -- bottom=joindomain.bat -- In joindomain.bat -- ::(remember, these run in reverse order) :: Join the computer to the domain with the current computer name

Hi, I'm having exactly the same problems as you, Jimmy. Perhaps it would help to do it like Kevin wrote, but then I have the problem with booting over LAN. Do I have to change the boot-images? Is this very difficult and if no, how can I do this? Regards Michael

Hi Jimmy, you say you installed w2k over LAN with smartdrv disabled. How did you disable smartdrv, in the images or by booting and confirming every single line in autoexec.bat? If confirming, I think it's not very comfortable - the name of the project is _unattended_ ;-) Regards Michael
