https://community.hpe.com/t5/windows-server-2003/help-with-ris-unattended-installation-files/m-p/3230313#M541 Hello everyone,<BR /><BR />I am having issues with trying to create a custom unattended installation file for our RIS image.<BR /><BR />Our network consists of three servers: a Windows 2000 Server computer as our DC, a Windows 2003 Server computer that runs Exchange and RIS, and a Windows 2003 Server that holds all the user data files.<BR /><BR />From what I have read the RIS server should be showing up in the Active Directory as such and from it's properties I should be able to associate unattended installation files with specific images. Problem is that it doesn't show up as a RIS server, it just shows up as a normal computer in the Active Directory.<BR /><BR />RIS works fine though, but with the default unattended installation file, which is unacceptable.<BR /><BR />Any and all help in this matter is greatly appreciated, thanks :-).<BR /><BR />Richard.

Choose to create script for Remote install, input your details you want for every machine then save it. You should now have a file called remboot.sif, it is very similar to the unattend.txt file, so you can enter the same fields. <BR /><BR />put this file into your RIS distribution folder .../i386/templates/ you can leave the default script alone.
