Setup Utilities

Previous Check Install Requirements	Manual Install	Setup Cluster Storage Group Next

There are some Windows utility programs the FineBuild relies on, and which must exist in the \Windows\System32 folder. A copy of these utilities is included in the FineBuild_ \Build Scripts_ folder, and if required it will be copied from that folder to the \Windows\System32 folder.

These utilities form part of the Windows 2003 Resource Kit, and can be used on all operating systems from Windows XP onwards. It is recommended that each site copy their own version of these utilities into the FindBuild \Build Scripts folder, so there is an assurance that the utilities have come from a source that is trusted.

Download the Windows 2003 Resource Kit from https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=17657. Install it on a Sandbox computer and copy the following utilities to the \Build Scripts folder:

• CACLS.exe
• NTRIGHTS.exe
• REG.exe
• SETSPN.exe
