Thanks for the replies, I will try Greg's solution to use unattend.txt. Presumably, I assumed erroneously that if I would set the property UnattendFile in unattend.csv to site/winxp-un.txt, that then the other properties (those mentioned in sample-config.pl) would be read from that file, which, I gather, is not true. I do understand what the workarounds are, but to my mind, this part of unattended (of which I am really a fan) can be improved. Once an UnattendFile property has been set, I would expect all other properties to be read in the following order: <macaddr>,<ComputerName>,<FullName>,<OrgName>,<UnattendFile settings>,Default A related remark: the nice thing in RIS (WDS) is the menu in which you can choose which image to install. I would like to see something like that in Unattended also: some part early in the install script where we can just choose which unattended-answer file to use. The database solution can then be used to couple mac-addresses or computernames to UnattendFile settings along the lines above. May I suggest these two points as feature requests?
