Not at all, it's hard enough just finding the CIW.

Let me rephrase the question, how I can get Outlook to not use the setup
wizard when it starts, and instead just start with the correct settings? I
had assumed creating an MST would be the answer, but I can't seem to get it
to work.

As a background, I am trying to get my network set up so that when a system
is reimaged via RIS, the user can just log in and start using it, no
configuration needed.

Thanks,
Erick
