hello all together!
i\'m trying to create an unattended setup for win2k... now i have a question about the default administrator-account. is it possible, to change it\'s \'username\' to another value (i.e. \'michael\')? or perhaps, it\'s possible to create a new user that has full administrator rights during unattended setup, so that the cmds specified unter guirunonce are performed under this user?
i hope you understand what i\'m trying to say...
thx for yer help!

This can be done with a security template. Import your edited template during the install. I used this command line:
cmd /c secedit /configure /db %SystemRoot%securitydatabaseWXP_Secure.sdb /cfg %SystemRoot%SecurityTemplatesWXP_Secure.inf /log %SystemRoot%OptionsCabsLogFilesWXP_Secure.log
Good Luck!

You can also change the Administrator username within windows itself... I always do this immediately following installation. Right-click on My Computer and select \"Manage\" from the context menu; OR goto the Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Computer Management. Expand the \"Local Users and Groups\" item then click on \"Users\". Right-click the Administrator account and select Rename.
