Hello everybody,

I would like to know if it's possible to use OpenBSD as RIS-Server to
install WIndows via Network. I played around with this for 2 weeks now but
I can't figure out how it gets done. Something is missing (maybe a
dhcp-option?! :( )

I use OpenBSD to provide kinda anything to connected PCs (remote install,
diagnostics, secure hdd formating (0,1,0 and other standards)).
Also I face problems to provide VistaPE (it wont realy boot, bootloader
comes up but then the bcd seams to be corrupted in soem way).

So if somebody here also administrates Widnows-Servers (I don't know that
much about 'em :/) and knows how to emulate a RIS please tell me. I would
love to replace the Windows Box (the Imaging-Server was already replaced).


The only things I've found with google where people using MS RIS to
install OpenBSD (scarry, or? :p) but not vice versa.


Kind regards,
Sebastian
