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.

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. Scott Adams Computer Network Instructor SEARK College Pine Bluff, Arkansas --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
