Using DaRT's Remote Connectivity Feature in a WinPE Image

A remote connection can be established in WinPE when deploying Windows. A recent blog post shows how you can integrate the DaRT 7 remote recovery feature into a WinPE MDT image.

Here is a brief summary of the setup instructions --

1. Install DaRT 7 and use the DaRT Recovery Image Wizard to create an ISO that includes the Remote Connection tool.

2. Extract the files (DartConfig.dat, FirewallExceptionChange.dll, LockingHooks.dll, MSDartCmd.dll, rdpcore.dll, rdpencom.dll, and RemoteRecovery.exe) from the boot.wim found in the ISO. Include these in your WinPE MDT image.

3. Configure the RemoteRecovery.exe tool to launch in the Unattend.xml file of your MDT image.

4. Optionally, automate the connection process by capturing the Inv32.xml file after launching RemoteRecovery.exe.
