Found this link, that seems to do a good job of constructing a script for 
installation.

Yeah....when I saw how kludgy it was, I gave up the idea of trying to use GPO, 
and just wrote a batch file and directed my users to the batch. Detected the 
bit version of the OS, installed the appropriate bit version of Lync, the 
latest rollup, the required internal certificate, and appended an install log 
to let me know if the install failed or succeded...if it failed it would give 
me an idea of why, but most of the installs went without a hitch. I was only 
rolling out to 100 or so people, so GPO was not a big deal anyway.

If you KNOW that all of your clients have silverlight and the other 
prerequisites, then GPO would probably work.

We installed using a computer startup script. The MSI can be extracted from the 
EXE and used to deploy but you must ensure that you have all the pre-reqs 
yourself (which is what the EXE does).

I agree, it is a bit “fiddly”

Anyone running Microsoft Lync 2010?



If so, did you install by running a GPO..???



All the documentation I've seen, from Microsoft and others, it's a little 
'tricky'.   I'm having some difficulty.
