While looking for information on how to administer a server core install, I came across a new blog resource. http://blogs.technet.com/daven I was able to get a list of command line commands that can be used to get your server core install off to a good start. When the Core installation is finished, you have a server with an unknown name, with a blank administrator’s password in a workgroup.
To get it configured you will need these commands:
net user administrator *
hostname
netdom renamecomputer
netsh interface ipv4 show interfaces
netsh interface ipv4 set address name=”
netsh interface ipv4 add dnsserver name=”
netdom join
And a few optional ones:
Cscript C:WindowsSystem32Scregedit.wsf /ar 0
WinRM quickconfigcontrol timedate.cpl
control intl.cpl
Slmgr.vbs -ato
start /w ocsetup /?
