I am trying to use WDS with Windoes System Image Manager to deploy our Windows 2008 servers.  I have sucessfully created unattended files for the various server types that we need to deploy except I am unable to find the Application Server Role.  The only AppServer that I see listed under Packages/Foundation/x86Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package is for Terminal Server. <br><br>Thanks<br><br>Glen© 2009 Microsoft Corporation.
