Hi Craig, yes I saw that this morning - if the pre-execution hook (which I'm not familair with..) requires some interaction (in this example it does) then that wouldn't be the first choice I don't think.
Maybe the script could be the subnet identifyer? I'll have to read up on "hooks"....... Thanks feel free to explain pre-execution hooks in english and a couple of sentences - that would help :) Stuart Watret Offshore - IT Ltd ________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Craig Andrew (OIZ) [[email protected]] Sent: 24 September 2013 12:40 To: [email protected] Subject: AW: [mssms] sense check pxe stuff You can deploy both TS to all computers, as hidden deployments. Then you need a pre-execution hook to determine which site the machine is in and then set the preferred TS as a TS variable accordingly.

Thanks.

The only thing that sits on the PXE Service Point is the boot image. Now I wonder if it is possible for you to have a single task sequence but with a query against IP information of the WinPE client directing you into different groups within the task sequence? ________________________________ From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] sense check pxe stuff Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2013 10:10:22 +0000 Is this possible? Currently we advertise one rebuild job availale to all our clients, from one pxe point. This works well, as users just F12 and nothing else. I have a new site, they need a different job; I don't want a choice forced upon the existing sites. Was thinking: New local pxe point on their subnet, ip helpers adjusted for them to point there. But can I advertise a TS to a specific pxe point? Ta Stuart Watret Offshore - IT Ltd
