I have created a Windows 7 image and used WDS to deploy it. I have a couple issues with my unattend file.

                       administrator

           xxxxx
           false

It should prompt for a computer name and then on first log on it should activate windows, join domain and copy the wireless settings before restarting.

 

It joined the domain itself, didn't prompt for a name and called itself 'administrator3' Then on first log on it activates and adds the wireless correctly.

 

Can anyone see why this is happening?

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Which unattend is this, the WDS client phase, or the image phase? It seems to be a mix of both.

 

You can't use WDS on it's own to prompt for a name then join, it happens in the wrong phase and breaks the trust relationship. You need to script it in the image run commands or use name and approve in WDS instead.

I have used this same file with an image about a year ago and it worked fine.

 

What I do is:

 

Install windows and all programs etc

Stick Unattend.xml in the sysprep folder and run sysprep gui

Sysprep does it's thing and restarts where I boot into WDS and capture the image.
