Sysprep.xml issues

[Guest]

I have created sysprep.xml using WAIK and it seems to work partially. I am
able to set the system for autologon. I

Here is the oobe section of my unattend.xml file. I have specified the
NetworkLocation "WORK" but sysprep does not pass on the settings when system
reboots.
<OOBE>
<HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage>
<NetworkLocation>Work</NetworkLocation>
<SkipMachineOOBE>true</SkipMachineOOBE>
<SkipUserOOBE>true</SkipUserOOBE>
<ProtectYourPC>1</ProtectYourPC>
</OOBE>

If I have False for SkipMachineOOBE the sysprep crashes out with error.
Also, how can you turn off the Phishing settings. I turn it off before
running sysprep.

Thanks

This is a bug (er, "known issue").

You have to add this to your unattend file:

(assuming my posting software doesn't mess with the linewraps -- the
"reg add "HKLM|..." line is the one you need to add. You can easily
use the WAIK to do this...
