Guest Andy Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Hi there all, I finally was able to get my Windows Deployment Services 2008 running, took forever to figure out that if you separate step 1 from the other steps you can actually have 2 unattend files, d'oh. At any rate! I'm trying to see if there is anyway to do a few fairly simple things the 'first time' and only the 'first time' the system boots up after the Windows Deployment Server deploys Server 2008 to it. Basically I want it to Install all updates via Windows Update, remove a Specific Name Server from the IPv4 settings and clean up all of the files left over from the WDS installation. I checked the script repo and I didnt see any way to install 'all updates' from Windows update. I dont want it to enable Windows update on an ongoing basis, just a one-time download & install. Thanks, Andy

Have a look on Google, or check the registry for this key.
