TIA, SWi am pretty sure that cant work (i have not much clue about windows though).try putting a windows xp installed hd from one pc to another... chances are big that it doesent work properly... if not even that works... how would a network boot work? just some thoughts... regards, rudolf kastlJustin Willmert
i saw a windows2k3 advanced server do ten XP clients the other day, but it (and some of the clients) kept crashing. they had 10 clients booting--they want to do 50. i know they are using a single XP disk image on the server but i haven't had a chance to snag a copy of the image yet. if i get it pxe booting with a fedora server (probably more reliable) i'll post again for completion.
thanks, SW
