hi
today all have lan cards with lan boot rom option ie im
talking about pxe boot using dhcp
winxp network installation using shared network drive
how to host dhcp server on winxp to do a remote
installation on another pc
with win2000 server its very easy to use ris and do a
remote installation
im giving steps
First, you need to set up RIS on a Win 2000 Server with
Service Pack 4 and the DHCP service running. The server
must also have the ADS (Active Directory Service)
configured
Plus, all desktop nodes on which you will be installing
XP remotely need to have LAN cards with a PXE boot ROM.
Let look at the process step by step.
STEP ONE
First, install the DHCP server on Win 2000 Sever. For
this, click on Add/Remove Programs from Start>Control
Panel, go to the Add/Remove Windows Components tab, and
from the list of built-in Windows components, double
click on Networking Services, select Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol and click on OK. You will need
your Win 2000 Sever CD handy for this. Once it is
installed, you can run the service from
Start>Programs>Administrator Tools. This will open the
MMC (Microsoft Management Console). From the right
panel, select the Win 2000 Server, right click on it and
from the drop-down menu that appears, select New Scope.
This will start a wizard that will ask you to name your
DHCP scope and IP Address Range. When you reach the
Configure DHCP option, select No I will configure these
options laterand click on Next. Finally, choose Yes, I
want to activate the scope option when it appears and
click finish.
STEP TWO
In the DHCP configuration window, right click on the
DHCP server icon and choose the Authorize option from
the drop-down menu. Press the F5 button and you will get
a green arrow on the server icon indicating that your
DHCP server is now running.
STEP THREE
To install RIS, go to Add/Remove Programs and add the
Remote Installation Services component from the same
place that you installed DHCP from. You will again need
your Win 2000 Server CD. Once it copies the necessary
files, a wizard will pop up. At this point, cancel the
wizard and first download the Q313069_W2K_SPL_
x86_en.exe file from microsoft.com/downloads to your
Win2000 Server. Double click on this file and extract it
to the \Remote Install\Admin\ i386 directory.
STEP FOUR
Click on Start>Run and type risetup to start a wizard
for configuring RIS. Give the path of your Win XP
installation CD when asked, and provide the path where
RIS should create the OS image. Keep clicking on Next
until you get to the Remote Installation Service Option
screen. From there, select Add New OS Image to this
Remote Installation Serverand click on Next. The wizard
will then create the image of your Win XP OS. Click on
Finish after it has done so
STEP FIVE
Your server is now ready to distribute Win XP remotely
to desktops. Now, just go to any client and configure it
to boot from the PXE LAN card. The client should be able
to get an IP address from your Win 2000 Server. As soon
as it gets the IP, press the F12 key to boot off the
network. The client will get a DOS-based wizard to
install Win XP from the server. The wizard will ask you
for a username and password to login to the remote boot
server. Give the administrative user name and password
to login, after which your Win XP installation screen
will show up.
