Hi There,
I was wondering if there is a way (script or 3rd party app) that will allow me to deploy x number of virtual machines.
Reason for this is that I am looking at wanting to provision a number of XP machines from our XP template and I would liketo find a way of automating it rather than doing manual creation of the VM's from the template.
I have a customization script setup as well to deal with VM name/Sid Change/Joining the Domain.
Anyone got some ideas?
Cheers.

You can do this with Powershell, someone has even setup a spreadsheet that you can fill in and click go !
