I have not seen this before but hoping some one can point me through a right direction.
I have a dell Latitude 5414 which I am trying to image using a custom TS. We have 2 different WIM files (Lets Say A and B). When I Try to image the machine with WIM File A it fails to join the domain. If I change the WIM file to B with the Exact Same TS it works fine.
We use Apply Network Settings step in the TS to add the machine to the domain
With WIM A (fails):
It does not create the log file netsetup.log under C:\windows\Debug, during the process it does create the Untended file under C:\Windows\panther\unattend\ folder. but the Xml file does not have the details of the account that is used to add the machines to the domain. Ideally I think it should have the user and password of the account in plain text. It does show the machine name though.
I can use the same WIM A to image other machines which work fine.
My Understanding is that the WIM is independent of any hardware configurations and I cannot actually think of anything within the WIM that could affect the Domain join part
Any help is much appreciated.
