Domain Name System
(DNS)
Your WDS clients will need DNS to locate your WDS
Server. Either way, you??™re going to need this since AD
DS requires it as well.
Installation media You can??™t install anything without the installation
media; make sure your OS source media is available
locally or via an accessible share on the network. The
installation media for Windows Vista and Windows
Server 2008 comprises multiple WIM files that are
loaded based on your selection during the boot process.
An NTFS partition on
the WDS server
A NTFS partition is required for WDS to store and
secure the OS images that will be used by the WDS
Server. The folder where the images are stored is shared
by WDS, and NTFS is required to set up security on the
share and folder to prevent unauthorized access.
Windows Server 2008 The WDS role can be hosted on a Windows Server 2008
server only, so a Windows Server 2008 server must be
available. Technically, WDS was introduced as a hotfix
for Windows Server 2003 SP1, but is only introduced
as a server role in Windows Server 2008. Also, in
Windows Server 2008, WDS can operate only in native
mode and cannot coexist with RIS (mixed mode).
