One of the things that I do on the side is manage a lab that is used for
training. They have 25 PCs with "IDENTICAL" configurations and
installations (down to the bit). How do I know that they're identical?
Because it was designed that way.
The first step is to have identical hardware.
The second step is to create the exact contents of the hard disk that
you want.
The third step is to take an image of this disk and copy this image to
the other machines. See
www.ghostsoft.com for a program to do this (DOS
based, but handles long filenames).
This isn't really related to the initial thread, but it's still a cool
piece of software. And it's great for 1) backing a machine up or 2)
moving to a newer machine with a near identical hard disk.
