I have a series of Dell servers and want to create an unattended install.

After the server has the OS installed, all of my Static IP information is stored but the NIC is not enabled.

If I disable and re-enable the NIC everything works.

I need to have communication with the Nic so that the server can become a domain member server.

When I look at the TCP/Ip parameters the system says, TCP/IP is not enabled.

Note, this is a daul NIC system.

Does anyone know what the problem may be. I have entered differ InfID for (intel=e100*, and broadcom=bcm*) and when I do this the NIC goes to DHCP mode.

If you have created unattended install scripts you might have run into this problem before.

Need your assistance if you are out there.


Below is the configuration for TCP/IP:

[Networking]
InstallDefaultComponents=no

[Identification]
CreateComputerAccountInDomain=Yes
JoinDomain= domainname
DomainAdmin=tester
DomainAdminPassword=whocares

DNS=No
DNSSuffixSearchOrder=corp.mydomin1.com, corp.mydomain2.com
UseDomainNameDevolution=No
EnableLMHosts=Yes
AdapterSections=params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1

[params.MS_TCPIP.Adapter1]

IPAddress=10.0.0.1
SubnetMask=255.0.0.0
DefaultGateway=10.0.0.10
