Does Sysprep clear the Primary DNS Suffix?

[Guest]

I am creating a new Windows XP image for our company to incorporate SP2. One
issue I am having is that the Primary DNS Suffix for the computer is cleared
after I sysprep the machine and reboot to test it. Is this normal operatioin
of Sysprep? I am running Sysprep Tool 2.0 from the WinXP Sp2 Deployment
tools. Also, Does Sysprep enable hardware that is disabled? I have the
built in wireless card disabled in the Docked profile, but after Sysprep and
a reboot the card is enabled?

Hi Jason,

I believe that Primary DNS suffixes are removed by Sysprep but you should be
able to add them with an answer file that gets called when the image is
copied down to the client PC. Just curious, are you using RIS to deploy
the images?

Brian,
We are not using RIS to deploy images.
