sysprep - networking - help

[Curtis]

After running sysprep, Default network components are
always installed. How can I ONLY install MSClient &
TCPIP. (I DON'T want file and print for ms networks). I
have tried everything. Please help.

Thanks in advance

This is one of the many sysprep.inf "configs" I have
tried:

[Networking]
InstallDefaultComponents=No

[NetClients]
MS_MSClient=params.MS_MSClient

[params.MS_MSClient]

[NetProtocols]
MS_TCPIP=params.TCPIP

Here is my response from Erik @ Microsoft:

Hi Curtis,

Thanks for your post.

If you want File and Print for Microsoft Networks removed
then you can use
one of two methods.

Include the following in your Sysprep.inf.

[NetBindings]
Disable = "Ms_Server"

The above is only valid if you are using Sysprep -Mini
and the next boot
will be Mini Setup. If you are using Sysprep -Reseal and
the next boot
will be Windows Welcome, the Networking section of the
Sysprep.inf is
ignored.

In that case you would use netset from the support.cab on
the Windows XP
Pro or Home Product CD to have it process the Networking
section of your
Sysprep.inf.

Or include the following in your cmdlines.txt to simple
remove File and
Print.

Netcfg.exe -v -u MS_server

Erik -SBST
