    I was wondering if anyone can confirm if 10.6 Server has any functionality similar to that of NetRestore when bombich still made it. Specifically, will it create a netboot set that can be ARD’s into remotely to image?

    Thanks,

    Nate

    You should look at Deploy Studio as it has pretty much replaced Netrestore. In fact, Bombich said that Deploystudio is what he wanted Netrestore to become.

    I am not what you mean when you say, “will it create a netboot set that can be ARD’s into remotely to image?”

    Do you mean can you boot across subnets by sending it a command via ARD? The answer is yes, but you would want to use the bless command.

    I don’t believe that the neboot “shell” os created by the Snow Leopard System Image utility has a vnc or ARD server running. However I’m going to be digging into that soon to find out. Sounds like Snow Leopard only hardware may be just around the corner.
