[Year 12 IPM] RIS - Remote Installation services for windows 2003

[Paul Drew]

Hi Margaret,

We are also using Ghost at the moment. Trouble is our techs say there is no
way of getting Ghost to automatically assign each computer with an
individual computer name and location so they are doing this manually to
each computer after the image is downloaded. This is very time consuming. Is
there an easier way?

 

Regards

Hi Paul

We use Symantec Ghost to do this.

Dear Lists (apologies for any cross posts)

 

Is anyone successfully using the Remote Installation Services of Windows
2003 server to re-image computers and automatically have them reconnected
back onto the network with computer name and location. Apparently this can
be done. We are looking for a solution to save our techs from having to do
this manually.
