Can you push out a scheduled task that will execute the registry file and run as administrator on the night of the cutover?
Push the scheduled task several days/weeks before the cutover to confirm all the PC’s have the scheduled task set. You could also include a script to have the PC append a text file with the computer name so you have an exact list of all the PC’s that have the scheduled task.

Have you seen quicker pushes through GPO? Looking at ~1,000 PCs and the idea is their IP Communicator would just be good to go when they logon the next morning even if on VPN.

Bulk updating the TFTP Server entries for CIPC has proven to be more difficult than originally assumed. Through a lot of trial and error, I found this is the correct registry location for 64-bit machines: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Cisco Systems, Inc.\Communicator\ There's also an entry in HKCU that is overridden by the HKLM entry. We're looking at ways to bulk update this registry entry. SCCM running the script doesn't seem ideal as it can take up to an hour after logging into the VPN for users to check in and run the SCCM script. We've pushed a local registry file to everyone's machines to allow them to manually run it but HKLM requires them to elevate their accounts to local admin. Has anyone found a way to do this fairly seamless to the end users?
