Hello,

I'm trying to add a user but it fails everytime.
I'm using the OOBEINFO.INI method.
You'll find the winnt.sif and the oobeinfo.ini attached
Could you help me ?

Thanx in advance.

Use the cmdlines.txt method, thats the easiest. Look here: http://unattended.ms...diate/users.htm and look for the NET USER Method

[Guillaume_fr]

actually, I've already tried it ... and it failed.
I think I've another problem but can't see where.

[durex]

post your files that you used with the "net user" method...

[Guillaume_fr]

Concerning the "net user" method, I've lost my files.
I'll try again and post my files.

What is wrong in the OOBEINFO.INI method. ?

[EliasXP]

The "net user" method is easier.

[davo007]

i am glad i'm not the only one having trouble with both methods

i copied and pasted the info from the guide on MSFN....but neither work....not sure why there is no real reason that i can see, i don't think...

can attach files if necessary....

I put it in $oem$\$$\system32\ and I haven't deleted OOBEINFO.IN_.

I will try with OOBEINFO.IN_ deleted.
Where do I have to put OOBEINFO.INI exactly ?
in $oem$\$$\system32\ or $oem$\$$\system32\oobe ?

[koszopal]

i think $oem$\$$\system32\oobe there

[Guillaume_fr]

koszopal, I've tried with
- OOBEINFO.IN_ deleted
- OOBEINFO.INI in $oem$\$$\system32\oobe
- OOBEINFO.INI in $oem$\$$\system32
And it still doesn't work :-(

I've tried again the "net user" method and it has worked !
I still have the owner account. Is it normal ?
If so,can I remove it with a batch launched by commandline.txt ?

edit : you'll find attached my files.

if it's called Owner, I'd assume he's using XP Home.

[Guillaume_fr]

Yes, it's a Home version.
Owner is the Built In admin account on a Home version ?

If I do a "classic" install of XP (not unattended), I don't have this kind of account !

[Guillaume_fr]

about the OOBEINFO.INI method, can somebody explain why it doesn't work ?
