The tool that makes Windows Server Core Installation more palatable to people has been upgraded to support Windows Server 2008 R2 Core Installation. This tool allows you do do common tasks via a limited GUI instead of searching the Net for the command line alternatives.
The tasks you can do with it include:
- Product Licencing
- Networking Features
- DCPromo Tool
- ISCSI Settings
- Server Roles and Features
- User and Group Permissions
- Share Creation and Deletion
- Dynamic Firewall settings
- Display | Screensaver Settings
- Add & Remove Drivers
- Proxy settings
- Windows Updates (Including WSUS)
- Multipath I/O
- Hyper-V including virtual machine thumbnails
- Join Domain and Computer rename
- Add/remove programs
- Services
- WinRM
- Complete logging of all commands executed
You can download it now. It’s interesting to see that it is written in PowerShell and is totally open source, i.e. you can amend it.
