Hi all,
is there a way to execute Windows 2000 Risetup.exe with
an answer file?
Thank you,
Fabio

Hmm, I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish... please tell us more.

Thanks.

Hi Scott,
I've installed RIS on my Windows 2000 Server. Now, I'd
like to perform an unattended execution of RISETUP.EXE
(Remote Installation Services Setup). So, I would like to
launch RISETUP.EXE passing an answer file to it. This is
possible in Win2003 using the "/AUTO" parameter of
RISETUP. Is there something similar in W2K?
Thank you,
Fabio

Create an answer file called ris.txt with the following:
[Components]

REMINST = on

Run the Following:
sysocmgr.exe /i:c:\winnt\inf\sysoc.inf

It will look for the I386 folder on E:\. If you do not
have the cd in it will prompt you for it. You can modify
the following registry setting to change where it looks:
HKEY_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersio
n\Setup\SourcePath

Correction:

sysocmgr.exe /i:c:\winnt\inf\sysoc.inf /u:"c:\ris.txt"
