Hello list,

Quite recently, I had a discussion with one of the system administrators here at our university campus. The discussion was about installing LibreOffice by default on all new desktop PC's for personnel.

Apparently, the item has been discussed in an internal meeting, but one of the reasons why our sysadmins prefer to stick with Microsoft Office is that it seems to allow easy remote managament of Office installations. For example (I'm quoting our sysadmin here...):

* Group Policies in Active Directory allow to change certain security settings.
* Windows Server Update Services allows an easy remote installation of updates on all the desktop PC's of the personnel.

My question to this list is about the LibreOffice alternatives for this. Does LibreOffice have possibilities of remote administration and management? Does it allow a sysadmin to easily and remotely manage security and updates from one central location?

Any help or pointers to websites where this is explained are more than welcome!

Kind regards,
Bart
