Setting Up an Additional Service in Unattended Setup

• Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0
• Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0

SUMMARY

You can automate the setup of any service by installing the service during unattended setup.

MORE INFORMATION

To install a service during unattended setup:

• Generate an Unattend.txt file, using either the Unattend.txt file supplied with the Windows NT 4.0 compact disc or Setupmgr.exe from the Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit.
  
  The following example can be used to install TCP/IP, TCP/IP Printing Services, the Simple TCP/IP Services, and Network Monitor in an unattended mode.
  
  

  
        [Unattended]
        OemPreinstall = yes
        NoWaitAfterTextMode = 1
        NoWaitAfterGUIMode = 1
        FileSystem = LeaveAlone
        ExtendOEMPartition = 0
        ConfirmHardware = no
        NtUpgrade = no
        Win31Upgrade = no
        TargetPath = NTW40.US
        OverwriteOemFilesOnUpgrade = no
        KeyboardLayout =
  
        [UserData]
        FullName = "Admin"
        OrgName = "Test Company"
        ComputerName = C_ADMIN
  
        [GuiUnattended]
        OemSkipWelcome = 1
        OEMBlankAdminPassword = 1
        TimeZone = "(GMT+01:00) Paris, Madrid"
  
        [Display]
        ConfigureAtLogon = 0
        BitsPerPel = 8
        XResolution = 800
        YResolution = 600
        VRefresh = 60
        AutoConfirm = 1
  
        [Network]
        DetectAdapters = ""
        InstallProtocols = ProtocolsSection
        InstallServices = ServicesSection
        JoinDomain = domlogon
        CreateComputerAccount = domlogon\admin, password
  
        [ProtocolsSection]
        TC = TCParamSection
  
        [TCParamSection]
        DHCP = yes
  
        [ServicesSection]
        NETMON = InstallNetMon  <----- new section for a service to add
        STCPIP = InstallSimpleTCP  <----- new section for a service to add
        TCPPRINT = InstallTCPPrint <----- new section for a service to add
  
        [InstallNetMon]
  
        [InstallSimpleTCP]
  
        [InstallTCPPrint] 

  
  In this case, the [ServicesSection] section has three particular services to install:
  
  

  NETMON = InstallNetMon
  STCPIP = InstallSimpleTCP
  TCPPRINT = InstallTCPPrint

  NETMON, STCPIP and TCPPRINT come from the [Options] sections of Oemnsvbh.inf, Oemnsvsp.inf and Oemnsvtp.inf files that are parsed to set up those services.
