Might be an option Grtz J -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Namens Grillenmeier, Guido Verzonden: woensdag 20 juli 2005 0:02 Aan: [email protected] Onderwerp: RE: [ActiveDir] Logon script with Admin rights well, I could think of many more drawbacks using this option... don't get me wrong - psexec is cool. But I don't really see it as an option to deploy software to many clients of which usually a certain percentage is remotely connected or offline. So you'd have to build your own little framework to ensure availablity of the clients and successfull install of the app etc. The success naturally depends on your client landscape /Guido -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Jessop Sent: Dienstag, 19.

As Rick points out preparing .msi files has it's drawbacks, not least of which is access to a clean machine to prepare it on.
