Creating SIF file for a RIS image

How do i associate a sif file created with setup manager with a RIS image
that I've created earlier.

So I install a winxp workstation and all necessary software. I connect to
the
RIS server share and transfer the image. Now i start the Setup Manager in
order to created the unattended file. I select the RIS unattended file
option
and choose all the options. After I'm done and the sif file is created How
do I associate the sif file with the modified Winxp image that I've created
before.

thank you

Hello asdf,

Just take out the old one from the installation folder, copy the new file
to your installation folder and test it.

Hello asdf,

Should be in one of them:
\server_name\share_name\RemoteInstall\setup\templates

\server_name\share_name\RemoteInstall\Setup\English\Images\Windows-Server-2003-SP1\i386\templates.
