Do you need to auto login with unattend.xml for Active Directory and computer name change to happen? I googled this question and I can’t seem to find a response.

Thank you kindly!

As long as you installed the FOG service into your image, nope. Once your hosts hit the login screen they should start rebooting within 30 seconds or less to change their host names. Then, another 30 seconds or less and they’ll be rebooting to join your domain.

Thank you d4rk3 for the help. I had it set to two and then changed it to one. When I get a chance I will test it with no auto-login.

you should not need any automated logins for FOG. As long as the NIC works and has drivers you should be fine all the way to joining the domain.
