For the moment it is completely unattended.
We have recent Dell Optiplex machines, (GX240, GX260, GX270, and
hopefully a GX280 soon), so I just insert my boot CD (I edited the
ISOLINUX.CFG with winiso to add z_path, z_user and z_pass), press F12 to
go to a boot menu, and then select boot from CD.
It worked! Thank you Godfrey and others..
I incorrectly assumed the unattend.txt file was parsed after the menu
was presented giving you the option to modify the unattend.txt. WRONG!
The Linux boot environment uses it as well.
Thanks again

Justin,
I have a script that uses a basic xml file to store the resources for our
network. Then a login script parses that file and maps the drives or
printers for the user. The code could easily be modified to make the
mappings permanent instead of the expectation that they run each time. You

Should just be a matter of seeing what the command adds to c:\boot.ini and
appending that line to boot.ini via a script.

I have used a couple of different versions of it. It's good for removing viruses and spyware, and maybe some other maintenance, but I have a different method loading ghost images. In fact, I recently setup a PXE server to help with that (and unattended). It works really slick.

To stop the question reagrding ntp servers.
You can put the ntp server in your site unattend.txt file. To leave it
blank do the following
in the [_meta} section add
ntp_servers=""
or to add a server
ntp_servers="pool.ntp.org"

I m not sure whether there is an option in the isolinux.conf file for the
ntp server.
But you can put it into the [_meta] section of the unattended.txt like this:
[_meta]

ntp_servers=""
as you can see I dont use the ntp-server but you can add one in that line.
In that way you
