Greetings.

Anybody here have experiance with Windows Deployment Services? I have some 
questions.

1. How do I setup security on WDS? Right now, it looks like any user could boot 
up off of PXE and either capture or install an image.

2. I want Vista to ask me for the name of the system I am deploying during the 
OOBE. I have an ImageUnattended.xml file setup for it (applied via WDS to the 
specific image), and I've kept the computer name blank... but the image I'm 
testing picks up the computers name from when it was sysprep'ed, plus a number. 
(for example, If I image 3 computers, they will get the names of 'oldname1', 
'oldname2', and 'oldname3'.) I realized after the fact that I syspreped the 
machine while it was a member of the Active Directory, and it seems to have 
somehow used the previous credentials to bind after being imaged. If I have to, 
I'll have the computers be re-named by hand after imaging... but I'm just 
curious.

Thanks for any thoughts.
