[Unattended] Special user in the PDC
Hello everyone! I've a little question that's not concerned directly to unattended, but maybe someone can help me with this. I've a PDC running under windows server 2003 with an active directory. Is there a possibility to add a user with special rights too add/delete computers into the domain? Thanks in advance for any help! Sebastian M. P.S.: I'm working here as a student trainee and I don't have direct access to the PDC at all! So when I want to change something in the PDC itself, I've to ask an associate! --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

Yes, the AD admin should know how to delegate rights to users in AD. --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

[Unattended] Linux boot disk fails on Dell Optiplex GX 60 and GX 260
Hi, I have tested the linux boot disk on several computer systems (Optiplex GX 280, GX 100, and several Dell laptops) and it seems not to work on a GX 60 and GX 260. I boots from the disk and partitions the harddrive. He copies the windows file to the harddisk and reboots. Now the windows installation setup should start but it doesn't. The computer (GX 60 and GX 260) seems to hang at the startup. Can you help me? Thanks in advance Daniël --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users. Discover which products truly live up to the hype.

[Unattended] problem installing windows on a second disk
Hi, your unattended install is very great and work very well, but we have a problem. We want to install a basic Windows os (drive c:) to be a repair partition if the system crash, we can boot on this basic os. We want to installthe real os on the D drive but the unattendeddo not permit this step. I want to know if its possible to let windows formatting the drive and leave us the option to install the os in the good partition I found this doc on you site:Note that the OS is always installed on the first active partition of the drive. If this is a problem for you, let us know and maybe we will change it in a future release. Can you give me any help please Regards Sorry for my english, I am french Ronald Bigras mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Telephone: (514) 490-2000 ext. 3552Administrateur Réseau MicrosoftUbisoft Global Network Services
Re: [Unattended] File copy fails
All, I wrote a bit ago about running into the atapi.sys error and here is what I found out. I was trying to install it on 3 different machines. #ModelIntegrated NICPCI NICNotes 1Optiplex 260Intel Pro 1000 Ran with no problems 2Optiplex 4003com 3c920 (905-TX)Atapi.sys error 3Precision 6103com 3c1918Atapi.sys error This first machine had no problems. Machines 23 got the atapi.sys error every time. Finaaly I added a PCI Intel Pro 1000 to machines 2 3 and it worked. I'm nmot sure but anytime i ran it with the 3com integrated NICs i would get the atapi.sys error. I even tried adding the drivers for the 3com cards to the OEM preinstall but that didn't work. I guess this mean I have to add Intel Pro 1000 PCI cards to all my machines here. I am hoping there is another way around this. If anyone has any feedback let me know Thanks Heather
Re: [Unattended] File copy fails
Might I ask what speed network connection you are using? Our building is wired with cat 5, and the switches are capable of 10/100, and are set to autodetect the speed. The dell machines with 3com integrated 10/100 ethernet (3c920) get shipped from the factory with the NIC hardware set to auto detect the speed and duplex. I swear the nics and the switches cannot decide on a speed, and this causes the machine to report that the cable is unplugged, or plugged in but you have no connectivity, but intermittently. A reboot may get it working ONCE. The DELL 3c920 network card drivers have a little DOS utility called 3C90XCFG.EXE, that will allow you to configure the hardware, and it saves these settings in some non-volatile ram on the chip. I have had to force all of my DELLs to 10MB, and as soon as I do, the duplex gets detected as HALF, and everything works fine. You might want to try forcing your NICs to a particular speed. BTW: I'm on list.

RE: [Unattended] File copy fails
I have run into this problem of auto-negotiation before as well. Sometimes we just have to hard code it to 100MB, full duplex. Might I ask what speed network connection you are using?

[Unattended] After install, ActivePerl error message
All, I got Unattened to work ( after changing out NICs see earlier post) but after the install, at the first login a command window appears and produces this error: Mapping \\ntinstall\install on Z:... The command completed successfully. ...done. The system cannot find the path specified. The system cannot find the path specified. Z:\packages\ActivePerl-5.8.4.810-MSWin32-x86.msi not found; press any key to retry. I check my packages folder and there is nothing in there that says Active Perl. Did I miss a step in upacking or did I not download somethign correctly? I read through earlier posts which mention ActivePerl but I coundn't find one that seemed this same problem. Is this critical. It seems the OS is working fine (btw I am installing Server 2003) Thanks Heather
