Re: [ActiveDir] Office2003 Rollout

[Robbie Foust]

Altiris deployment solution is a really handy product, but unfortunately 
you can't create a snapshot image of office and deploy it.  You pretty 
much have to run the setup with an answer file over the network.  I 
guess I would just use group policy to do it, or I wonder if there is a 
way to make a wmi script that would run it...like schedule it to run 
after hours, or manually start it.

I have to roll out Office 2003 onto around 350 desktops. Any great in 
site into the best approach here. I have been looking at some third 
party applications in particularly Altiris, but I was wondering if it 
could be done through Group Policy / Software deployment. All desktops 
are W2K.
