Installing Active Directory Using an Answer File
You can create an answer file to run the Active Directory Installation Wizard without screen prompts. An answer file is a file that contains answers to questions that should be automated during installation. The answer file must contain all of the parameters that the Active Directory Installation Wizard needs to install Active Directory. An answer file that is used to install Windows Server 2003 can also include the installation of Active Directory, or you can create an answer file that installs only Active Directory and is run after the Windows Server 2003 setup is complete and you have logged on to the system.
You can find “Microsoft Windows Preinstallation Reference,” by opening the Ref.chm help file on the Windows Server 2003 CD-ROM. The Ref.chm file is located in the Deploy.cab file in the \Support\Tools folder on the CD. The parameters required are described in Appendix B, “Active Directory Setup Answer File Parameters.”
