| I have been looking throught the wsf scripts trying to find where it asks for the domain user name, password and domain. I believe it is trying to authenticate to see if the person running the install has permissions to the server where they are stored. I want to prefill the domain, and add some error checking to prompt them to reenter there password if they type it wrong. Does anybody know which script is running when that screen pops up? Thanks Dan | | | |

| What part of the install is in question? Is this during the WinPE login? Or during the install of the OS? Or is during the GUI for the WinPE questions during the beginning?
You could prefill the domain, by using the database under the Details Section > Domain and Workgroup.

| It is the screen that says specify credentials for connection to network shares. I think it is in the winpe boot but I'm not sure. It pops up before it asks for the image or computer name. I tried adding the domain to the database and it still doesn't prefill this screen. And if I leave the domain blank the install fails. I'll see if I can dig up a camera to take a pic of the screen in question. Dan | | | |

| | You can bypass the initial BDD Welcome Screen by updating your bootstrap.ini to include: [Settings] Priority=Default
[Default] DeployRoot=\\YOURSERVER\Distribution$ SkipBDDWelcome=YES UserDomain=YOURDOMAIN UserID=YOURUSERID UserPassword=Password KeyboardLocale=YOUR KEYBOARD LOCAL
Let me know how that works out. Mike Dzikowski | | Mike Dzikowski, MCP | |

| Here is a pic of the screen I am trying to prefill the domain into. On the previous suggestion, do I need to update the images to make the changes to the bootstrap.ini or can I just update(files only)? |

| | I'd run the complete update which will rebuild your boot WinPE images.But you may not really have to do that. Try it without first... Mike Dzikowski | | Mike Dzikowski, MCP | |

| Rebuilt the images and I am still getting that screen. I added the following lines to the bootstap.ini with the correct information after the = signs. UserDomain= MYdomainName Userid=MyUsername userpassord = Mypassword I also added this information to the database with the same results. Dan | | | |

| Hi Dan- Lets try to add this as your Keyboard Locale:
English_United_States | 0409 | 1033 | 0409:00000409 | Basic |
So your CS.ini will look like: [Default] Deployroot=\\servername\distribution$ OSInstall=YES skipapps=YES ' not sure about this one, you may want to OMIT for testing SkipAppsOnUpgrade=YES SkipCapture=YES SkipAdminPassword=YES SkipProductKey=YES SkipApplications =YES SkipBDDWelcome=YES SkipTimeZone=YES TimeZone=020 TimeZoneName=Central Standard Time UserDomain= Userid= UserPassword= KeyboardLocale=0409:00000409 And to your Bootstrap.ini add: [Settings] Priority=Default
[Default] SkipBDDWelcome=YES DeployRoot=\\YourServer\Distribution$ UserDomain=DOMAIN UserID=USERID Try that out and let me know. Mike Dzikowski | | Mike Dzikowski, MCP | |

| Hello, Do you have a solution for the problem at the moment? I have the same problem, but I think I find the reason: In one of the logs I saw that the litetouch-image cannot authenticate itself with the credentials from the bootstrap.ini. The reason is that the litetouch-image has no Active Directory support build in. There are a lot of articles how to add ADSI-support. But....in the LiteTouchPE_x86 it seems impossible because peimg /PREP is done automatic, and because of that, it is impossible to run the peimg /install=*scripting* command. Does anyone a solutions to fix that? Regards, Mark Klerkx | | | |

| I followed the instructions Mike gave above and it worked for me.
I found the key thing to do once you update the bootstrap.ini file is to right click the deployment point and choose update, I previously had selected update(files only) which didn't work.
Also the change has to be made in WDS. In WDS I select the appropriate Lite touch Boot Image in the Boot Images folder right click and choose "replace image" adding the updated wim file from %driveletter%\distribution$\boot\ | | | |
