I simply run CHFARM prior to imaging and put the server in a spurious farm using a local Access datastore. After imaging, simply running CHFARM to add the server to your production farm will do so very cleanly.

You may also want to consider creating a post image script... Of which you could install MetaFrame via a script rather than trying to image it.

Here's the procedure I use after a machine has been imaged... pain-stakingly simple. 1. Login as local admin. 2. Dissolve teamed network connection, recreate with correct ip address. (This is to reset the MAC address / routing tables) 3. Run NEWSID.EXE to generate a new sid and rename computer name at this point. 4. System will reboot. 5. At this point, you can add the computer back to the domain only after deleting the existing Active Directory Object for that computer. Once added, move AD object back into correct Citrix OU. 6. Change UID entry to one at random in w:\program files\citrix\system32\ctxsma.conf, restart Citrix XML service, add server again into Secure Gateway Console. 7. ensure anti-virus software is correctly communicating to management server. 8. ensure appsense is correctly communicating. Is there anything else that's been missed? ******************************************************** This Weeks Sponsor: triCerat Inc. You need Day Zero Protection!
