I could be wrong....long time since I used them, but I definitely moved my msi files from the netlogon share to a file server for some reason in a previous job.

I THINK this started with our upgrade to 2008 R2 DC's. Did perms change somewhere along the way and I missed it...it almost seems as if computer accounts are no longer members of Authenticated Users. I have always had my basic software installs like flash and whatnot in sysvol/netlogon.
