Script for changing HostName and IP config in Windows OS

Hey all -->

I'm setting up a Windows 2003 WebServer on vmWare. After it's core setup (windows updates, etc.) I'm going to make a copy of the vm so I can restore it if it fails, and so I can duplicated it.

The one I'm building will be www1

I will eventually need www2, www3, etc.

Is there an easy way to script changing the hostname and IP? Should I just use a batch file? I'd like to be able to edit hte batch file to change the hostname and IP that I want to use, then run it on the new machine to get it changed.

Ideas? I'm googling now. 😛
 
Which version of VMware are you using? If you have vCenter with ESX, you can convert the VM into a template and deploy VMs with customized IP/hostnames.

This. If you set up a customization specification its as simple as giving it a name when you deploy a new machine from it.
