Ghost Solution Suite

I have two NIC's installed and have been having trouble setting the second NIC IP after imaging. The computers have a primary and secondary IP each being static. In ghost it allows me to set the first IP (first in the list once image is loaded) but I was wondering if there was an easy way to set both IP's.

 

I have created a batch file to set the IP's based on computer name but I don't know how to have ghost execute the file. I tried AutoInstaller with no luck. I was thinking about running it at boot but i thought there may be another way.

 

Second is there a way to apply a postimaging configuration from ghostcast like you can from the console. It just would be a lot quicker to run from the ghostcast disk rather than have to boot to the virtual partition from the console.

 

Note: Imaging will be used on previously configured computers and barebones machines.

My suggestion would be to add "Execute Command" to your clone task and possibly transfer file if you need your script file copied to the machine.  You could put a "loader" type file in your image that when executed maps a share and gets the real script to avoid the copy process.  At any rate, while I have never done it this way it should execute the program after the clone command and if you tell it to do so while in windows then the computer will boot to windows and run your code.

 

I dont think you can do multiple nics (your first question) to configure.

 

Your second question:

 

ghconfig.exe and ghconfig32.exe were added in GSS 2.0 to allow you to configure a machine either from windows or DOS.  You will need to read about the required parameters in the PDF that is in the ghost dir to create the file required for ghconfig to work properly.
