Kevin - Thank you for the link to http://wpkg.org - About 12 of the apps I want to deploy after deploying Bacula in that manner, are supported by this system! What was going to take me about 3 weeks, I can now get done in the next week or so, and I will again look like an amazing miracle worker to everyone!
Thank you! From: Kevin Keane [mailto:subscript...@kkeane.com] Sent: 19 December 2009 02:52 To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Install Bacula-FD on windows en masse? (grouppolicy) I started using GPOs for deploying software, and ditched it pretty quickly. Too many limitations; the biggest of them is that it can only install MSI files, not applications packaged as executables or any other way. Of course you can create MSI files yourself with tools such as makemsi, but it's a pain. Instead, I am now using WPKG to deploy quite a lot of software (Adobe Reader, Firefox, Opera, Microsoft Office, and, yes, bacula-fd) http://wpkg.org/ It works 99% with bacula - the only problem is that the bacula uninstaller is not completely silent (the dialog "do you want to remove configuration files" pops up even in silent mode), so removing bacula is a bit of a pain. Not enough for me to even file a bug report, though...

(group policy) Dear All, I was wondering if anyone has installed bacula-fd via group policy. I've got a project in front of me to install bacula on 30 servers as a test. I would be glad to know if anyone has already written a guide to using bacula in association with ad/gpo for a deployment
