Windows Deployment Services - Capturing Image

To Microsoft Technet,

I am currently a student and I have setup a fully functioning Windows Server. This Windows Server has AD, DHCP, WDS and MDT installed on to it. This server was setup so that we can re-deploy Windows to any of our computer labs and it will just be a fresh install. My problem is that the students also need to upload (capture) an image of the OS to the server every now and then as part of the coursework. When uploading an image they are presented with this option:

Clik here to view.

Obviously when you click connect it asks for a username and password so that it can write to the folder. The students are not allowed to know the username and password because if they do then they break the server. They do this because they log on and mess around with it. I am currently asking if there is a solution so they can connect to the server and it will automatically log them on as the admin.

These are solutions however I feel they would be inappropiate:

- Give them a username that has read / write access but block the logon.

- Allow "Everyone" to read / write thus no logon screen.

However I feel that both are a security risk as students can just join the folder from the network and delete other students work.

Instead I would like the windows server to automatically allow the connection by implementing the logon details. Is there a possible way to do this?

Thanks,

Thomas.
