morning All,
I am trying to install Certificate Services in an unattended manor.
I logon to the server and run my install script it all works fine. However, if i run the install script from an installation service (i.e. no local logon) the install doesnt work. The installation service in running with full local/domain admin rights.
The setupapi log file gives me the following:

[2006/01/24 11:13:59 3252.18]
#-198 Command line processed: "C:\WINDOWS\System32\sysocmgr.exe" /i:sysoc.inf /u:"C:\unattended.txt"

I think i need to sort out the inf file issue.
The certmast.inf file is not available in c:\windows\inf. A certmast.in_ file is available in the amd65 directory but i guess the sysomgr process doesnt like extracting it for some reason.

Could any point me in the right direction? or more specifically i have tried to copy and rename the .in_ file manually but it is in 'double-dutch', is there a specific command i can use to extract this file??

Thanks,
mrmovie
 
i have used the 'expand' command to expand certmast.in_ into .inf into the inf folder but this hasnt helped the situation
