Using Script Files and Redirection
The remoteboot database used in Windows NT is contained within two files: SYSTEM.MDB
and RPLSVC.MDB, found in the \\ systemroot \RPL directory. Access to the remoteboot
database is enabled only through the RPLCMD.EXE command line utility and Remoteboot
Manager.
Creating or editing boot blocks and configurations for new NICs can be made easier by using
script files and redirecting them into the RPLCMD.EXE command line utility. Using the
supplied examples, you can create your own scripts by modifying and copying them. The
FETH.RPL script provided on the MBA Utility Disk or MBA subdirectory on the EtherCD serves
as an example for creating configurations for various DOS versions.
The following is a sample commented section for adding a boot block. Modify this sample as
needed. Remove comments and remove any spaces between lines.

A sample section for adding a configuration is as follows:

dos6.22 abc fastethernet
comment for this configuration
The .BAT file (RPLUP.BAT, also on the MBA Utility Disk or MBA subdirectory on the EtherCD)
requires the script file to reside in the same directory as that of the .BAT file:
@echo off
if “%2”==”” goto error
if “%1”==”” goto error
:start
