Thanks Bob but I had already set that to "work". It's another reason I'm a bit stumped.
Everything I read says that an Admin can't set the location as Domain. It should just happen. Which then suggests that setting "Work" in the answer file should also not be required.

Add "Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup_neutral->OOBE". Then define the "Network Location" You can also skip the EULA, set windows updates, etc. You can create Answer files with Windows AIK. Bob From: James Hill [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, November 01, 2009 6:09 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Win 7 - Network Location Awareness Ahh the joy of delving into a new OS. When my freshly imaged (via sccm) Win 7 machine is first logged on to it prompts with the NLA box asking me to define what type of network my domain is. Now from what I can see it should not ask at all for a domain joined machine that is on the domain. It should automatically set the location as "Domain" and not prompt me to choose Home, Work or Public. Has anyone seen this behaviour? What am I missing?
