Scott,

I had a similar problem and found that my admin password wasn't compatible
with the linux install method -- when I used a simpler password everything
worked.  I didn't spend too much time working on the problem but I assumed
that the samba client must not have liked it.  Now, months later I have
found that windows doesn't like that password sometimes either -- eh, no
worries.  Anyway, check if there may be some 'weird' characters in your
password and test it with something simple.  All this assumes that you have
put the data into your unattend.txt correctly:

[GuiUnattended]
    AdminPassword=YOURPASS

[Identification]
    JoinDomain="YOURDOMAIN"
    DomainAdmin="YOURDOMAIN\someaccount"
    DomainAdminPassword="somepass"

Good luck.
Don

Subject: [Unattended] OK, couple of new problems/questions

I have gotten everything working for the windowsXPsp2 install using the
linuxboot method and it works great, I have the unattend.txt file setup like
I would like. Only two questions, or maybe they would be problems, I put the
administrator password in the unattend.txt file but it still asks for it and
if I do not enter anything then it is blank when the machine finishes the
install, I am assuming this is a problem with something not picking up the
adminpassword from the unattend.txt or some such.  The second is a question,
what file do I put the "//server/folder" (//ntinstall/install change) and
the userid and password so that I do not have to enter them all the time,
remember I am using the linuxboot method.

Thanks for the great program and the help.
