Windows 2008 Server Core installation

Little reminder for the installation of Windows 2008 Server core.

Once the installation is finished, you can run the following commands :
  • netsh interfaces ipv4 to configure the IP address
  • show interfaces can help you to identify the connection name (normally "Local Area Connection")
  • set address name="Local Area Connection" source=static 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 0.0.0.0
  • add dnsserver name="Local Area Connection" 0.0.0.0 index=1 (2, 3, etc).
  • netdom renamecomputer %computername% /newname:computername
  • cscript C:\Windows\System32\SCregedit.wsf /AR 0 to enable the RDP support
  • netsh advfirewall firewall set rule groupe="Remote Administration" new enable=yes
  • netsh advfirewall firewall set rule groupe="Remote Desktop" new enable=yes
