Thanks, Brian. That is what I am going to do.

No it doesn’t. Just push the app down to everyone and push the settings per user – it should accomplish the same thing…

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.

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.)
