RE: [ActiveDir] OT - Published app requires local admin

No it doesn’t. Just push the app down to everyone and push the settings per user – it should accomplish the same thing…   --brian   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Noah Eiger Sent: Sunday, June 18, 2006 7:35 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] OT - Published app requires local admin   Hello:   I am trying to deploy the Cisco VPN client (4.8.01.0300) via a GPO. With some chopping to the MSI, I have been able to get it to install under the Computer Configuration. However, I would like to Publish it to users instead. For users who are members of the local admin group (yes, yes, I know – that is another discussion), the software installs properly.   For standard users, the Published install fails. As far as I could determine, there are two errors: 1) “Error in custom action. The library c:\Docume~\...\ProductCode\insthelper.dll is invalid or could not be found.”   2) “CreateDeviceInfo error: Access is denied.”   Doesn’t the Published install run under the SYSTEM account? If so, why should it still need to be a local admin?   Thanks.   -- nme   P.S. Is there an effective way to prevent users from finding the original installer files and copying them from the network share? (Besides hidden share or hide file attribute.)   -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.1.394 / Virus Database: 268.9.0/368 - Release Date: 6/16/2006
