; This file contains information about how to automate the installation

; or upgrade of Windows 2000 Advanced Server so that the Setup program

; runs without requiring user input.

[Unattended]

UnattendMode = FullUnattended

TargetPath = Advsrv

FileSystem = ConvertNTFS

OemPreinstall = Yes

OemSkipEula = Yes

[GuiUnattended]

; Sets the TimeZone. For example, to set the TimeZone for the

; Pacific Northwest, use a value of "004." Be sure to use the

; numeric value that represents your own time zone. To look up

; a numeric value, see the Unattend.doc file on the Windows 2000 CD.

TimeZone = " YourTimeZone "

; It is recommended that you change the administrator password

; before the computer is placed at its final destination.

AdminPassword = AdminPassword

; Tells Unattended Setup to turn AutoLogon on and log on once.

AutoLogon = Yes

AutoLogonCount = 1

AdvServerType = Servernt

OemSkipWelcome = 1

; The OemSkipRegional key allows Unattended Setup to skip

; RegionalSettings when the final location of the computer is unknown.

OemSkipRegional = 1

[UserData]

FullName = " Your user name "

OrgName = " Your organization name "

; It is recommended that you avoid the use of spaces in the 
; ComputerName value.

[NetAdapters]

; In this example there are three network adapters, Adapter 01,

; always LAN connection 1 in the user interface. The network adapters

; in this example are not identical.

Adapter01 = Params.Adapter01

Adapter02 = Params.Adapter02

Adapter03 = Params.Adapter03

[Params.Adapter01]

; Specifies which adapter is number one.

; Note that the NetCardAddress key must match a valid address of the

; adapter in the system. For example, a valid address might look like

; the following: NetCardAddress = 0x00C04F778A5A

NetCardAddress = YourNetCardAddress

; The ConnectionName key specifies the name for the network connection

; associated with the network adapter that you are installing.

ConnectionName = CorpNet

[Params.Adapter02]

; Specifies which adapter is number two. Note that the

; NetCardAddress key must match a valid address of the adapter

; in the system. For example, a valid address might look like the

; following: NetCardAddress = 0x00C04F778A5A

NetCardAddress = YourNetCardAddress

; The ConnectionName key specifies the name for the network connection

; associated with the network adapter that you are installing.

ConnectionName = VendorNet

[Params.Adapter03]

; Specifies which adapter is number three. Note that the

; NetCardAddress key must match a valid address of the adapter

; in the system. For example, a valid address might look like the

; following: NetCardAddress = 0x00C04F778A5A

; associated with the network adapter that you are installing.

[GuiRunOnce]

; You can automate the running of Cluscfg.exe by placing Cluscfg.exe

; in the [GuiRunOnce] section of the Unattended answer file. This

; executes Cluscfg.exe and configures clustering on the first startup

; after GUI mode Setup has completed.

; You must include the full path to the program between the quotes.
