Great article, but I have a question. On the 2nd to the last paragragh, you wrote "When the computer has finished booting, insert the second 3.5" disk and start the disk-imaging software; save the hard disk image to the network drive you just mapped." Do you mean disk-cloning software and not disk-imaging softare?

Great advice. I have a couple of recommendations to save space on the final image. When installing Windows 2000, use a version that has SP2 integrated into it, this will save about 60MB or so, avoiding the backups of the files Win2K loves to keep. Also I recommend running a script to clear the paging file just before sysprep, and another script to recreate it after reimaging.

Question about finalsetup.vbs....I've gotten to the point where the script runs and still get a message that the computer hasn't joined the domain when in fact it has! The value is in the registry and I can't figure out what's up! Help!
