SUMMARY
=======
This article describes how to insert TCP/IP information using the Msbatch.inf
file for batch installations of Windows 95.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Microsoft does not encourage or support changes to .inf files; therefore,
Microsoft Technical Support does not support the procedure in this article.
Although we have tested the following procedure and it appears to function as
described, make a backup copy of your .inf file before you proceed.
In the Msbatch.inf file, modify the [Network] section to include the following
line:
Protocols=MSTCP ; other protocols can be inserted here also
Also add the following section and parameters as needed:
[MSTCP]
DHCP=value ; 0=disable, 1=enable
DNS=value ; 0=disable, 1=enable
WINS= ; 0=disable, 1=enable, DHCP=get parameters from DHCP server.
Gateways=ip,ip ; Lists the IP gateways (IP routers) and order to be
used.
IPAddress=IP
IPMask=ip ; Sets the subnet mask if DHCP is not enabled.
PrimaryWINS=IP
SecondaryWINS=IP
DNSServers=DNSIPAddress,DNSIPAddress ; Lists DNS server IP addresses
and order to try them.
DomainOrder=domainname,domainname ; Sets a list of DNS domains and
order to try them.
Hostname= ; Required when using DNSServers entry. Is usually the same
as the computer name.
LMHOSTPath=path ; Path and filename to LMHOSTS file.
ScopeID=string
NOTE: Some IP settings may not be added properly. An updated file may be required
for full functionality of some of these switches.
