I took a shot at the unattended mailing list and came up empty so I thought I'd try my chances here. I have a test box running Debian woody, kernel 2.4.27-2-686, it is successfully booting using the unattend (ver. 4.6) http://unattended.sourceforge.net/index.php with a linux boot disk. I am about 90-95% where we would like this machine to be (with successful apps installed) but have hit a snag with real VNC.

It installs the app. and it functions but when I attempt to control the client remotely, I receive the following error, "server license key is missing, invalid or has expired do you wish..." I have a vaild key for it, but it is not entered during the install, since we are running silent. When I ran the app locally there is a prompt for a registration code, so I know that I need to somehow incorporate the key into the realvnc.bat. I searched google and mail-archive.com and only found this link http://www.mail-archive.com/unattended-info@lists.sourceforge.net/msg02000.html which mentions an approach we do not want.

Our box will be in a remote location, and their are no techies (whatsoever) on hand. I want a branch manager (or equivalent) to stick a disc in the machine and in an hour or so, have a fully functioning machine, which loads all the programs we need it to. I checked real VNC's documentation and also came up empty. The current configuration of the real VNC script is posted below:

For anyone familiar with the unattended approach, below is a snippet of the bat file that is called by the perl script that controls the entire install.
:: OPTIONAL: Install RealVNC
todo.pl "%Z%\packages\realvnc\vnc-E4_0-x86_win32.exe /sp- /verysilent"


Again sorry for the off topic post, but I didn't know where else to turn. Thanks.
