Cannot Install CSNW with "Attended=Yes" in Unattend.txt File

 Last reviewed: March 27, 1997
Article ID: Q165974
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

You cannot install Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) during an unattended Setup with "Attended=Yes" in the [Network] section of the Unattend.txt file.

CAUSE

Installation of CSNW during an unattended Setup requires the InstallServices entry in the [Network] section of the Unattend.txt file. When you add the "Attended=Yes" line to install network components interactively, Setup ignores all entries in the [Network] section. The Setup Wizard for installing the network components that is started at this time does not prompt you to install additional services.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here In the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
