I’m working on setting up and windows 2000 server as both my active Directory and RIS server. I have Active Directory up and going great. Now I’m work on setting up the RIS server so I can put windows 2000 pro installs over the network. I’m able to get the installs to work and it’s nice to not have to do anything to the client. :(

But when I go to run windows update, I get all kinds of page errors. And I’m unable to download any installs. :tazz:

I was able to slipstream SP4 into my install, but I still have the same problem. :)

Has anyone had this problem? :woot: :woot: :woot: :P :P :P

If I put the CD into a PC and run a manual install the system works. :)

just for clarity....

if you do the remote installs....then on the client machine..windows update doesn't work whatsoever..

but if you install locally...windows update works like a charm?

there may be something wrong with you os image
