Windows 2008 Server Core Configurator

Hi,

Following my post Windows Server 2008 Core Initial Setup and RODC Installation, I would like to share with you this tool that I found at CodePlex, Microsoft’s open source project hosting web site.

Core Configurator, which his first beta version was released in September 2008, now has a stable version (v1.1) and as you can guess, it’s for a Windows Server Core setup.

The tool comes in two formats, ISO and CAB. Regarding the CAB format, you need to extract the CAB, copy the extracted files to your desired location on the Core server, and run the Setup-Core.wsf file which will launch the GUI. More info can be found in the CAB Readme file.

This is a very nice and simple tool to configure Server Core Installation!

Some of you are probably familiar with a more friendly tool called CoreConfigurator made by Guy Teverovsky. Unfortunately, Guy had to remove the tool. More info can be found here.

Enjoy the tool!

Thanks for reading!
