Enable Remote Desktop in Unattended Installation

[Guest]

Hi,

I need to enable Remote Desktop during a RIS installation. I was able to do several things with the unattended file, but not able to enable the Remote Desktop so the admionistrators will be able to connect to a computer.

Thanks, Christian

I do not believe you can do this directly in unattend.txt.

However, you can do it from a script using WMI.

For a sample script in Perl, see:

http://unattended.sourceforge.net/apps.html#rdconfig

Christian,

In your risstnd.sif try adding the following

[TerminalServices]
AllowConnections=1
