• Have the Microsoft implementation of the TCP/IP protocol installed and running.
The protocol must be able to resolve hostnames. The computer name and the
hostname must be the same. Refer to
“Setting up the TCP/IP protocol on Windows systems” on page 170 for information
on installation and configuration of the TCP/IP protocol.
• Ensure that network access user rights are set under the Windows local security
policy for the account performing the installation.

Installation Server can be used to remotely install clients only in the same domain.
