Installing RIS Missing Remote Installation Services in Add/remove Progs

[zarabina]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem to install RIS on my Server.
My Server is a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 2.
So here is the problem:
I go to CONTROL PANEL -> ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS -> ADD(/REMOVE WINDOWS COMPONENTS --> Remote Installation Service
Here i cannot find this Check, so i cannot check it to Install it.

Is there maybe an issue with my version? That this component cannot be installed?
Or could it be something else?
I have found nothing in the web...

Hope somebody can help me!

Thanks

Hrm.

Sounds like RIS has been replaced by Windows Deployment Services. I hadn't seen that yet, but will run into it very shortly.
