I have the following situation:

Unattended 4.5, currently set up to install Win2k, Win2ksp4 and WinXPsp1
from a Win2k machine using pxe booting. Installation of the operating
system works fine (all of the different operating systems), however,
installing applications and patches doesn't work. It appears that the
perl-script doesn't get permission to reboot the machine, even though
the script is running under the "administrator" account on the local
machine to be installed.

I'm using the following unattended.txt:
------------------
[Components]
         ; Do not install IIS
         iis_common=Off
         iis_inetmgr=Off
         iis_www=Off
         iis_pwmgr=Off
         iis_doc=Off

[UserData]
         FullName="xxxx"
         OrgName="XXX"

[GuiUnattended]
         AdminPassword=xxxxxxxxx
         TimeZone=110

[Identification]
         ;JoinDomain=xx
         ;DomainAdmin=xx\xxx
         ;DomainAdminPassword=xxxxxxxx
         JoinWorkgroup=xxx

         InputLocale=1053:41d, 2057,809

[_meta]
         fdisk_lba=1
         replace_mbr=1
         fdisk_confirm=0
         ntp_servers="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
------------------

and the following config.pl:

------------------
use warnings;
use strict;

#
# PUT YOUR CHANGES HERE
#

$u->{'UserData'}->{'ProductKey'} =

     sub {

         my $media_obj =
         Unattend::WinMedia->new ($u->{'_meta'}->{'OS_media'});
         my $name = $media_obj->name ();

         if ($name =~ /Windows XP/) {
         return 'xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx';
         }
         return undef;

     };
# Make this file evaluate to "true".
1;
----------------------

After the os has been installed, the machine goes on installing patches
included in "base.bat" (which I choose when booting), I get the
following error message:

---------------------
Mapping \\pc11096\install on Z:...
The command completed successfully.

------------------------

I'm basically out of clues here.. I have verified that the computer is
logged on using the administrator account. It doesn't appear to make any
difference if I choose to join the AD domain or to just join a workgroup.

Thankful for any help :)
