I am trying to setup a solution in which I can acheive unattended os deployments preferrably using Drive Image
Currently I have a virtual floppy setup so the machine will reboot and connect to the Image Server and image the machine. Once the image is complete, I have to manually rename the computer, join the domain and specify the static ip address
I know Sysprep will do this with randomly assigned machine names; howver, our organization uses static machine names and I cannot have them randomly generated with Sysprep. Is there a way that I can setup some type of file that will correlate the machine name/IP address to the NIC/GUID address
What would be the easiest way to accomplish this? Is it possible to run the image, have the machine name randomly assigned with sysprep, join the domain, but then when it finishes have something that will rename the computer to the static name and assign its ip address
Thanks in advance for your help.
