[Unattended] unattend.csv and FullName

Hello,

I'm currently implementing Unattended at our school as an alternative to RIS (even for minor problems, we reinstall ;-)  because the sysadmins are all volunteers). I followed the instructions on the website for using a csv file as a database, but I'm afraid I haven't understood everything. The only two paramaters I want to have read from the database, are ComputerName and bottom_scripts. For the rest, I want to refer to a single answer file in the site folder, named winxp-un.txt. It contains all the necessary entries and works with the original config.pl.

However, when I exchange config.pl for sample-config.pl and boot the machine with the [mac addr] NIC, the Computername get's read automatically, but the install script asks "Enter the user's full name for this machine", even though there is an entry FullName in winxp-un.txt. Can someone help me to get this working?

The relevant lines of my unattend.csv look like this:

"Lookup","Property","Value"
"[mac addr]","ComputerName","ABC123"
"ABC123","bottom_scripts","bottom.bat"
"Default","UnattendedFile","winxp-un.txt"

I changed the last line to "ABC123", but that didn't help. Is "Default" correct if I want to use one UnattendedFile for all pc's in the network?

Thanks in advance!

Remko
