Good question - I'll be watching for replies.

In our location, we have some people with admin privileges, some without. We 
also have some people on centralized desktop management, some with local IT 
admins helping out. Some people have neither and are responsible for their own 
machines.

So right now, when we move to the automatic updates, we're going to have to 
make sure those on centralized desktop management have their versions upgraded 
first, and then we can update the URL to include the latest copy.

My worry is - if the URL is there from the beginning and the centralized 
upgrades happen and their version doesn't match the upgrade url , but is higher 
in version number, will that "pass" the test? Or will the upgrade URL try to 
downgrade those users?

Ugh.

Subject: [cisco-voip] Overriding admin permissions necessary for 
jabber-update.xml

So I'm trying to make it so that all my users are on the newest version of 
jabber, but other than using GPO or third party software to push the new 
versions, it seems to be impossible to properly use Jabber-update.xml, thanks 
to the fact that the update requires admin permissions and 99% of our users 
don't have those. Is there any way to get the updater to use some implicit 
permission so users can just update the software without assaulting our 
helpdesk with hundreds of calls?
