Hi,
first of all I want to thank for the fast and informative replies.

I´m using the Version 4.6 with linux bootdisk!!!

In the moment I´m not working with a database but in the future I would 
like to.

My unattenden.txt is nearly the standard one (only changed the Location 
settings) because I would like to control the whole thing over only one 
file).

My testing unattend.csv looks like this:

"Lookup","Property","Value"
"macadress","ComputerName","computer1"
"macadress","OS_media","xp_prof2"
"macadress","Partitions","fdisk /clear 1;fdisk /pri:12288;fdisk 
/pri:100,100 /spec:7;fdisk /delete /pri:1;fdisk /pri:4000;fdisk /activate:1"
"computer1","FullName","Computer Name"
"computer1","Windows XP Professional ProductKey","XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"
"computer1","OrgName","privat-org"
"privat-org","AdminPassword","adminpassword"
"privat-org","JoinWorkgroup","wourkgroup"
"privat-org","ntp_servers","none"
"privat-org","top_scripts","base.bat"
"privat-org","middle_scripts",""
"privat-org","bottom_scripts","BOTTOM.bat"
"computer1","OemPnPDriversPath","cq3"
"computer1","ProfilesDir","D:\Dokumente und Einstellungen"

This is basicly what I have done. Just one more little change in 
config.pl to jump over the question which drivers I like to install.

Tried around a little bit but the workaround at the link you send me was 
the one that didn´t work for me at all. No idea why.

One more question comes up while trying, Is it enough to set in 
unattende.csv  "computername","JoinDomain", "Domainname" to bring a 
computer into a Domain?? I mean normally I need to Login the first time 
as a Domain administrator User to join it.

I hope I gave you all informations you need.

Thanks again and Best regards
Andy
