We are trying to "automate" the deployment and have run into a snag. We sysprep the box with the IMA service set to manual but the couple of methods we tried to "script" a restart have failed. Anyone done this? How? thanks _______________________________________________ Doug Stratton CITS Technology Development Analyst Work: 250-356-6678 doug.m.stratton@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:doug.m.stratton@xxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________
