I am pretty good with Macs and the in and outs but this one stumps me.
Okay here's the deal the Print Shop at my school has 25 Intel iMacs running Tiger and connected to a server running Tiger Server as a file server.
Sorry I posted this in the wrong section I just re-posted this
I want to set up one iMac and fresh install Leopard install all the classroom software and then make an image. Then I want to use that image to broadcast from the server (Tiger Server) to the other iMacs. These iMacs will just use the server to get files.
1. Is there a software program to do this easily?
2. Is there software on the Server that can do this already?
3. Anyone have experience doing this or can point to an online guide or site to help out in this process?
any help would be appreciated.

Yes, NetInstall.

Apple has a lot of documentation on it, here is a starter guide...

NetRestore (a 3rd party tool) is free and more widely used, but if you don't need anything to spectacular NetInstall could do the trick.
