Title: Deploying OS using Tftpserver
Post by: kryptos on November 29, 2007, 03:10:40 AM

Hi All,

Can someone here have experience deploying an OS using tftp-server? This is what I want to do we have 50 + pc the thing is i want to install Windows XP easily without having to insert cd on each of them. I want a centralize installation by booting from a lan card. Can this be done? Or is there any other software that will do easy deployment for winxp? I have already SME server at the office acting as Server-gateway.

Regards,
Rocel
