After Update to VC 2.5 U3 (we had problems with joining a domain through customisation with 2.5 U2) guest customisation works with the above path.

I took the sysprep-tools from the CD1 for W2K3-Server R2 SP2 and out of the extracted SP3 for WinXP SP3.


I tested:

Windows Server 2003 R2 (Standard, German, SP2, x86 and x64)

Windows XP Professional SP3(German)

both with and without joining a domain.

worked all flawless :))

Hi,

the information from Doc7 was very helpful and made my day fine again :-) I use VC2.5 Update 4 english on german windows server 2003 SP2.

My problem was, all information about this issue that I found before was to put the files under C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware Virtualcenter\sysprep. But that is wrong now.

Obviously the tipps were not for the german version of windows server :-(

Cheers

Volkman
